Does this work on flies that come in contact with it? Like on walls?

It won't kill flies in a time frame that you will be able to see it happen. It's slow. It's not like they'll come in contact and drop over like many other pesticides. Most bee spray drops them right out of the air, dead on contact. This is for an entirely different purpose. You may not see the flies die, but as long as more are not coming in, pretty soon they'll all be dead. And it does seem to work a very long time. They say a year, I'm not so sure I'd go that far, but it's worked for me for 5 months now.

Yes, it will work for flies. But I would suggest that you keep all the poop picked up in the area and there will be no flies.

Yes, it works on wasps. My housemate has even caught them on the fly, but I'm not that talented. Would recommend waiting until they land on a flat surface.

I have no idea about drain flies, but it clears drains, albeit VERY slowly, and dissolves scum and buildup. It did NOT dissolve hair which I had to pull out of the PVC myself. Now, it should keep the drains clear and smelling better.

Actually doesnt work at all with fleas nor mosquitoes and basically flying objects. For these a recommend another type of repellent or device. It works perfect for roaches,mice,bugs,spiders. Really effective.

earwigs like rotting wood, if you have some old mulch, you could put a bit in the center, maybe an earwig will after it and get stuck. but the best way to use- simply put these against the wall. bugs love to move along walls, so do mice. I have had mice in mine! if you put a bit of book binder in one, you can attract silver fish. but they are basically best at just grabbing everything that moves along your wall. try one by a basement door and see how many bugs you get! its surprising and you start to by these in bulk!

I don't know about small flies (or large ones!), but it definitely works well for mosquitos and is fine around grass, even newly planted grass. Everything I have read indicates it is supposed to be safe where people are and kids play.

Suppose so - it should be used on areas with bad smells, drains, it did not kill the drain flies that we have.

I think it does attract flies from all of my neighbor's backyards. I wish everyone on the block had one of these. I don't think this is actually a problem because it does trap them very effectively and I do not see any flies other than right at the trap.

I think they want us to place it far enough away because it really stinks. And the idea was to draw the flies away from the house. Well it does not do so. It does capture them once they find it. It catches alot but there were still many by the house. Putting it as close as you can stand the smell would work.

I do not know. I have not had any experience with drain flies. It does work on fruit flies especially if you put it out right away before they have time to multiply "like flies do".

Well, I'm not sure cause those fruit flies are so darn tiny I suppose they could slip thru the mesh, but if ya hit them they will be zapped'! I bought one as a Christmas gift for my son and he's successfully zapped flies and crickets (so far). One person told me it only stuns bees, but works great on other flying insects. My daughter and her partner are moving to Conn. in May and they bought one cause they were so pleased with how well it works and think it will come in very handy with all the flyin' bugs there! I know several people who have them and they are ALL pleased. Good luck!

No it doesn't help at all with flys but does an amazing job with Mosquitos.

I don't know that for sure but Amazon has products for flies only. Search for it on Amazon. I see a 5 star product by OFF! just for flies.

Yes, I have used it with stink bugs also. They move rather slow, so you can catch them easily.

No it really only kills flies. Anything with an exoskeleton just gets shot a few feet away

I don't know if this works on gnats because that was not my intended use, I just wanted to disrupt the life cycle of biting flies and such. Check on google to find what is most effective, good luck!
