    catchmaster 100FF

    By John on 09/14/2011

    Verified Purchase

    They work great at catching crickets and spiders in our vacation house. I lay them out flat and they attract the bugs. I will place them in different ares where you won't step on them and it is amazing what they attract and catch. I highly recommend them.

    Virtually Useless for Fruit Flies

    By Patricia on 07/30/2012

    Verified Purchase

    Had to pour wine or vinegar on cards to attract any of the hundreds of fruit or drain flies we've been contending with, and even then they weren't 1/50th as effective as a cup of cider vinegar with a drop of soap in it.

    Catchmaster Fruit Fly Glueboards

    By Susan on 11/09/2011

    Verified Purchase

    I found I had to spray balsamic vinegar on the traps or the flies would not go onto the board. There is already a faint smell on the boards so they are baited but the fruit flies I was dealing with were not attracted to the bait. I may have had too high an expectation of the glueboards but found that 1/3 to 1/2 of the flies went onto the boards and the rest had to be manually killed. The company mailed them out very quickly and their service was good. I did not approach them about a refund for the unused boards because I think they will help with the problem we seem to have at the end of every Summer.

    By Anonymous on 08/30/2013

    I tried but no luck , may work for some but did not for me , I had better luck with apple cider vinegar , with saran wrap and small holes in the wrap , and I used a rubber band to secure the wrap ,

    AMAZING!!!

    By Palma on 10/21/2014

    Verified Purchase

    I guess it should not surprise me that these are effective, but I was surprised. I liked that you could lay them flat or fold them up. Priced the same type of item sold at the grocery store and paid way less for these. Love this product and the service.

    Work great

    By Dick on 11/16/2016

    I get these because they are nontoxic and my dogs don't try to eat them. If they did they can be cleaned up with mineral oil. They are great at catching the things that the dogs would go after if they saw them. To be honest I don't think I have ever caught a fruit fly but lots of other things have been eliminated in them.

    Expert Response  Expert response:
    We are sorry that you are unhappy with your purchase. Did you remove the plastic cover from the glue traps so that the insects can be caught? You may also want to check for competing food sources such as decaying fruit or vegetables, compost, etc. Please let us know if we can further assist you!

    Box was open...smashed.

    By Roberta on 08/31/2017

    Box was opened, left on my doorstep. I needed product right away so didn't bother to call. Product works for fruit flies, not regular flies. But I need mainly for fruit flies.

    Love these traps

    By Alex on 05/17/2024

    We fold along lines and place at edge of each garage door. Insects entering get caught on glue and die there. This morning I found a 1 1/2 foot snake caught on one of the traps as it tried to enter our garage. Was a simple task to sweep both the trap and the snake out into the driveway where a pest control technician took the snake and trap away. We have been using this same trap since 2008. From my perspective, they work great. Bought the first box thru Amazon, who no longer carries the model 100FF.

    Traps do not seem to trap fruit flies

    By Richard on 08/02/2024

    I placed these traps qn kitchen counters and in every room in the house. After 2 weeks, nary a single fruit fly in any of the traps dispite seeing them buzzing around. The traps claim to be banana scented, but I cant tell if they are,
