Farnam Home and Garden 11736 Starbar Sticky Fly Trap, 24-Inch

I can’t explain enough how awesome these are. We live in Utah in a mixed area of residential and rural farming. There’s chickens, cows, sheep, ducks sprinkled between neighborhoods.. These all bring a large population of flies, wasps, beetles, gnats, and huge hornets. The regular sized wasps nest everywhere and can be aggressive immediately. After killing 6 nests around my little backyard homestead I find them taking refuge in my siding. I placed on of these sticks by the nest entrance and the next day the entire nest was stuck to the trap. These are worth every dollar. They are easy functionally, just pull out of the box and they’re ready to go. Extremely sticky. There’s zero smell that I’ve noticed and we have 3 or 4 always hanging.

Work good. Will buy again.

Helps reduce mosquitoes. Good product.

I live in a swampy area and have a lot of flies, even in the "winter" (all two weeks of it here) and so I got this thing to help combat them. I guess I should have realized that putting this outside wouldn't work, as the product warns that not only does it catch flies, but butterflies and other small creatures, even hummingbirds, can get caught on it. Ok, duh...I should have known that before ordering it. So I decide to put it up indoors to get the flies that make it into the house while not risking my butterflies, dragonflies, and hummingbirds. I put it up in the doorway, which is one of the high-traffic areas for flies in the house. Getting it out of the box and hanging it up was a feat in and of itself, as it kept sticking to the box, the wall, and me. This was encouraging, though, as I thought it would really work well. Several days later not one fly has landed on it even though quite a few have made themselves comfy here. I moved the stick to the living room,where the flies migrated to, and hung it up close to a floor light thinking the light would draw them to the bright orange of the stick. Nope. This thing just doesn't work. I honestly can't figure out why...it seems like it should, but it just doesn't :o/

These work every time you hang them in an area when flies and wasps are present.

The box it was shipped in was mashed, sticking the very sticky bar to the packaging. Very messy to get loose and bent the insect bar. I love the product, just not the packaging.

I’ve ordered this item in the past and does work well trapping flies. However, this time it was shipped in an envelope and arrived smashed and adhered to the inside of its packaging. Most of the glue came off of the stick trying to remove it from its packaging. DO BETTER in packaging and shipping these fly traps.

Has cut the pest coming into my house by 90%! (I have it hanging by the back door) I think when the bugs see their friends hanging around they stop to say "hi" and don't leave! Great product.
