I have not seen any flies since spraying it around the house, or fleas, waterbugs, spiders. I am very happy with it.

Forget about it. I have been meaning to update my review. It zaps and pops . . . the fly drops . . . ten seconds later, the fly is in the air. It is good for mosquitos but it takes two to three hits to kill a fly. Its not worth it.

I treated mine the first time I set it up. I do that as a precaution with all my tents. It did not come with a fly.

I know it works for more than just common "house flies" because there are more "bugs" in it than just those. I believe I have seen some horse flies in the bag too, but am not 100% certain (I do know what a horse fly is, just not absolute that I've seen them in the bag). In my opinion, for the cost, it is definitely worth the try.

I have never used it indoors. I have seen them indoors and they worked. As far as flies I do not see why it wouldn't. If they are attracted to the light and fly for it; zap. I have a lot of yellow flies, moths and misquotes due to open fields, wood lines and a creek all near my home. That is why I have two. Hope this helps you.

Most flies are not active at night. Regarding many bad user reviews for this product, it has worked very well for me.http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/07/science/07qna.html?_r=0

This will help with flies but not mosquitoes. Immediately after we put this down or rub it on our animals you will notice immediate relief in the fly population.

I'm sorry but I don't the answer to this technical answer. I just know that it worked here in the office to control our outbreak of the pesky flys.

Even if it doesn't, a good solution to drain flies is drain cleaner. I know, seems kind of cruel but it does kill them. Bleach works too.

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

these fly traps work better than others i have tried. Yes they smell but not as bad as some traps. I have used two at a time when flies are really bad, sometimes they will last 10 days, usually not that long because they fill up(catch too many flies) and need replaced. I used them early in season and haven't needed to use them again this year so far.

I use these in my portable greenhouse and wow they fill up quick with black flies and knats.I also use the fly strips and they work great.I just don't use anything like that outside.The best stuff for outside is yard guard.It is a spray and I use it in the bushes and trees that all bugs hide in.

It keeps working until full of flies, make sure to add water if it looks dry

That is specifially why I bought it. We have pet turtles and because of feeding them fruits and veggies, we get the fruit flies too. They aren't easy to whack, they are hard to see, but it does work on them. I haven't had an occasion to use it for mosquitoes yet.

I don't really know how effective it is? or how much it would cover? We have it in our living room and find all kinds of flying insect in there except flies. The fan is not strong enough to pull in certain insect and the room have to be completely dark for the bugs to get drawn to it. We often get power outage and once the power is out, the trapped insect can escape. It's not as effective as the outdoor model which is alot brighter and it kill the insect right away instead of waiting for it to dehydrate and die.

it all depends on your fly concentration and quantity. In my area there are lots of dairy factories, the traps last one week more or less. don't let it run out of water, needs to have about two inches of water in the bottom. flies will keep accumulating up to about two inches from the top.
