Customer Reviews About Fruit Flies
Great unit!
Really impressed with the unit! It works perfectly, and the service was super quick. Highly recommend it! 😊
Great for keeping those pesky fruit flies away!
Sucks up daddy long legs ok (main reason I bought this) but have to break the web with the nozzle for larger spiders (otherwise isn’t strong enough) and use the funnel attachment for small spiders. I also added a stocking over the grill part at the motor end to prevent spiders getting injured but most spiders don’t get sucked in that far as can control the suction by pressing the button for only short time. The light on the device doesn’t seem useful
super easy to use and actually works, caught way more bugs than I expected
Great product
These are so straightforward – just place them near your plants and let them do their job. No smell, no setup, and they really do catch a lot of those annoying little flies. I use one per pot and it’s made a big difference.
