Is the attractant cup supposed to have a hole in the bottom of the "cup"? I bought two traps, one has no hole, the other has an odd hole off-center.

i bought two, no hole at the bottom tip, but there are 4 hole on the rim above. the holes are for venting purpose. my traps worked very well. they trapped over 100 yellow jackets last summer.

There are tiny holes all over mine too. I think they're supposed to be there to let tiny amounts of air out or else it would pop. I haven't had issues with mine at all, and I've got 4 boys wrestling and bouncing like crazy in there. Check the info packet just to make sure, because if it loses too much air then they won't be able to bounce on it.

There is only one hole that allows liquid through it on mine, when poured through the top of the funnel. There are some other holds in the circular plastic piece at the bottom, but they have no purpose that I have seen.

A lot of people are saying thiers has a hole, but mine didn't have one. Maybe mine is an older version of some sort.

I just saw the other responses. Mine has a hole with a plastic piece that fits in if not using one. I just got mine a few weeks ago.

Around the bottom, on one of the sides there will be 2 wire clips that secure the cage in an open position. Looking at the picture the way it sits on Amazon. If you look at the bottom right of the cage where the right tunnel is, in the bottom ring there will be 2 rings that secure the cage in the open postion. All around it is a good trap. I did make a few tweaks to better secure the trap when opened but you will understand if you purchase the trap.

It would depend upon the diameter if your disc. The attractant simply lies in a rectangular compartment. My unit died after one season (partly because of its poor design) and was discarded. Sorry I can't measure the slot for you.

Hi there Karen,There is no sippee hole? You have to screw the top off to gain access to your drink. Have a look at the images (last 3) to give you an idea.Hope that helps.Cheers - Steltz

I have found I need to stick a pin in the basket to clear out the hole. There is only one, in the center, you can see it clearly from the bottom.

I don't believe there is an obvious hole on the outer glass, it's just a small indention on the bottom of the cup (you can kind of see this indention in the pictures on the bottom of the cups). The glass may get a little cold (or warm) near the top of the cup, but in my experience there has not been any condensation.

We gave it as a gift & I don't remember seeing a hole in the bottom. Our daughter loves her's!

I don't know why you have a space- when I screwed the jar on the bottom it fits up against the bottom of the trap-tightly- there is no escape once they fall into the jar- I've watched them try to get out--maybe you don't have the jar screwed on correctly???

Mine does not have the holes. Sorry you have that. I would go ahead and return the second and try one more time. Worth it! I just love mine.

Maybe it's a bad batch of formula. Or time: the time it takes for the "stink" to activate at my 6900 elevation is a few days. You probably know a pinch of local dirt is required with the liquid in the bag -- this last time a clod clogged the hole, and I didn't see it until the next day. If your problem happened to me, I would try the manufacturer (go right to the top) and let him/her decide what to do. They want their product to bring happiness to all concerned (except the flies), and want to find solutions to problems like yours.

There is one hole in the top of the ball like unit that is about 3/4". Farther down inside the hole is quite small and has slanted sides - apparently so they gnats cannot get out after they go down where the fluid is. I know that sounds rather complex but this little gadget really works.

you may see a hold-like dot in the middle, but it's not really a hole. you can check if they have two or three by squeezing water out of nipple. I thought i received 3 holes all along, so i was feeding my 8 months with the nipple that came along, but it was actually 2 hole nipples. I'm now buying addtional 3 hole nipples.

Don't make your own hole! There is a hole, just look closer for it. If you can't find it, yours might be defective.
