    Awesome!

    My mom and I feed feral cats, they'll come in the garage and eat.   The flies were just NUTS. We didn't want to put the bait down in the garage so we used this and set it up on a shelf,  The next day, dead flies everywhere.  They'd eaten almost all the bait. LOVE IT!

    Versatile bait station

    By Jesse on 02/11/2013

    Verified Purchase

    I'm a professional & would recommend using this with granular fly baits, no matter where you're applying the bait. Used these around the doors of my home, installed in discreet areas, & have gotten great results. I've also used these in some of my accounts, horse barns, dairies, etc with positive results. Sightly, unlike most fly traps, & when ordered in bulk inexpensive. Child & animal proof when installed correctly.

    excellent

    By Susan on 09/08/2012

    I am very satisfied with this fly bait station. It is a very good price. It comes with a key so you can keep it locked. And it has "don't touch" engraved in it so it makes it responsible. At first I didn't understand how to hang it up but when I called customer service they were very helpful. I understood right away how to put it together.

    I'd Give 0 Stars If I Could....

    I've been in the Pest Control business for over 22 years, and I've never had such a miserable failure from a product like I did these stations. I tried three different baits and mounted these in the dumpster areas of about a dozen restaurants and NEVER found on dead fly in any of them. SAVE YOUR MONEY!!

    I live near a dairy and there are a lot of flys. I feel the Fly Bait Station is really helping with our fly problem.

    FBS-1 Fly Bait Station

    By Randall on 08/21/2015

    I set up the FBS-1 on a post four feet above the ground, and filled both trays with Maxforce bait, and a week later I emptied the Maxforce, and replaced it with Golden Malgrin bait to see if that would work. Neither baits worked in the FBS-1 for me in my workshop area that is across from horse corrals. (The horse corrals are cleaned up every morning at six O' clock AM as part of the fly control here at the ranch.) Disgusted I decided to build my own bait stations that would allow the air to flow through the bait station, as well allow the flies to enter from either side of the station. That works. I am finding dead flies now, and the outrageous amount of flies we have had this Summer (absolutely the worst in thirty years we've been here) is definitely reduced back to what I would consider normal for Summertime fly population. The only time the FBS-1 worked was when I left open the door, and the flies actually lit on the bait. The next day I found three dead flies in the trays. I don't want to have exposed bait to kill the flies, so as I said I built my own, and nothing but flies, and that size of insect can get inside to the bait.

    By Sam on 08/09/2019

    Trays little tricky getting in but solid product and like how it's easily mountable on fence - if needed would buy again.

    Overall good Bait Station

    By Rob on 06/16/2024

    Verified Purchase

    Better quality than you can buy at other online stores. Rain storms and irrigation don't seem to be a problem. Very easy to use, but make sure to purchase the optional stakes unless you have something to mount it on.

    Ain't no flies on me

    By Daniel on 07/21/2023

    There might be flies on you guys, but there ain't no flies on me. Ever since using this with the bait, flies and horseflies have been non existent this summer.

    Not as effective as I thought

    By Rick on 07/14/2023

    Flies pay absolutely no attention to it. Bought with the max force pellets and sometimes a fly will land on top of the station but it's been 4 weeks and the bait inside hasn't been touched.

    came with no mounting hardware.

    it came with double sided tape, but not screws to mount it. I think that is kind of lame. units itself seemed pretty decent.

    Solution to a fly problem

    By Jackie on 09/23/2022

    I use this bait station with Farnam Home & Garden fly bait and it is incredibly effective. I feed the neighborhood feral cats and have a significant fly problem I was using the fly bags but the smell becomes overwhelming. This is more effective and has no nasty smells. I was just putting the fly bait out but killed a lit of crickets and wanted something more fly specific. It can be mounted easily anywhere.

    Bummer

    By Sherrone on 05/28/2022

    I purchased 3 bait stations for my farm, set them up per instructions and just waited for them to work. They seem to attract flies, but the flies don't go inside the bait station, rather, they swarm my barn. Really annoying to increase the population of flies with none dying from the bait. The bait works if I put it directly on top of the wheel barrel that I use to clean up horse manure. I am very disappointed as I was so excited to help solve some of my barn fly issues. I use fly bags, swats, and fly strips that have been much better.
