    highly recommend !

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] easily the most beneficial item I have received. I live on a lake where there is a lot of bugs and a lot of moisture, and they slipped through our AC units during the summer and it is a nightmare. I love how compact this machine is and I have already had to use my second trap. That is how many bugs were captured within the first night of having this machine. It is very easy to use and easy to swap out the insect traps and there is no odor.

    small indoor

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] so much smaller than expected, but kind of cute I was bummed out because I thought this would be Big and I could use it on my back porch. The packaging says it's for indoor use for a small area. I put it in our dining room next to the window.

    Very simple

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Very sleek and almost classy looking device that is simple and straight forward to set up. I like how simplistic it is, just three buttons to use and you're ready to go! It's similar in size to a house phone with a base(see photo). Plenty of room inside for bugs to be caught on the sticky trap. It works effectively and efficiently!

    Nice!

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This works great! It is super quiet, has a convenient timer system and easy to charge. I love that it is chemical free so as to not contaminate our food and safe for pets. It is a convenient size for a countertop yo catch those pesky fruit flies. Easy to maintenance and change the traps. Would be better if it held a charge for longer. Really great product.

    "Compact, quiet, easy to use, and low maintenance-an effective mosquito trap for keeping indoor spaces more comfortable."

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had a positive experience with this mosquito trap. In terms of odor, it doesn't produce any unpleasant smells or rely on chemical repellents, making it a great option for indoor use. The size is compact and sleek, so it fits easily on a desk, nightstand, or countertop without taking up much space. As for the sound, it operates very quietly. The fan produces only a soft hum, so it doesn't disturb sieep, work, or relaxation. The controls are simple and user-friendly, with easy-to-use buttons on the top that make operating the device straightforward. When it comes to maintenance, it's easy to keep ean. You only need to empty and clean the ollection tray periodically and remove any dust om the inside to maintain its performance. Overall, this is a well-designed, quiet, and easy-to-maintain mosquito trap that works well for indoor spaces and is a convenient alternative to chemical-based insect repellents.

    Works great!

    This is such an easy product! You do hear the fan but it is so quiet that I just ignore it. It works so good! I had it for one week and already notice a difference in the fruit flies/gnats in our house by our house plants.

    Perfect and cool looking

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Wow this is such a much more esthetically pleasing looking fly trap. Its hefty too so seems like nice quality materials used. Its super easy to use the sticky trap go on the inside you can leave it plugged in or charge it and move it. We used it while out camping so it was convent to move from inside the camper to home. Super easy clean up as well.

    Works, but not enough to make a difference for me

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I can’t say the product didn’t work, but for the amount of mosquitoes I have in my garage, to only trap 1 after 2 days of use, I can’t say is extremely effective. It looks nice, it’s easy to put together and all, but it really didn’t make a difference for me the way I used it.

    Effective even with minimal bugs in home

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the light that attracts the bugs, it’s very subtle and not super bright. It’s easy to operate with a touch screen pad. I placed mine beside my sink and I only caught a couple gnats but I don’t have a ton of gnats visible in my house currently.

    Great device- with ONE caveat...

    I recently purchased 3 of these devices to try in our home… It’s summertime here in the northeast US, and we’ve had a wave of VERY hot & humid weather. In addition, I am a plant lover, and have several dozen plants throughout my home… Unfortunately, I had a hitchhiker on a couple of these plants: my arch nemesis, the fungus gnat. Fungus gnats look similar to fruit flies, and they’re every bit as annoying. They’re also a bit difficult to get rid of once they’ve settled in… so I’m always on the lookout for effective insect traps to place in my plant-heavy areas. I’ve found the Zevo brand traps to be very helpful in the past, but I think that THIS device has a little added edge: the light/fan combo that draws the little bugs in, then sucks them into the device and down into a waiting sticky trap. The sticky trap is easily changeable (you just open the device, tip the canister over to empty and replace the sticky pad). HOWEVER… here’s the caveat. As you can see by my pictures, while I ordered the exact same device over 3 different Target orders, ONE of these devices was quite noticeably different. I suspect that the smaller version with the softer/rounded edges on the left of the picture is an older version, and the larger/more cylindrical one on the right is the NEWER version. They both work the same- but the difference is that THE SMALLER/OLDER VERSION on the left DIDN’T COME WITH A USB PLUG! This isn’t the end of the world, of course- you can buy one at a variety of stores… But if you don’t have an extra usb plug available, then you have to use the rechargeable battery- which is a bummer as it takes 7.5 HOURS (!) to fully charge- and then it lasts only 8 hours or so before needing to be charged again! In the end it’s a great device and I highly recommend it, but make sure you’re aware that you could get EITHER version depending on what is stocked on the shelf, and that as a result, you may need to get yourself a USB plug adapter depending on your needs/preferences for use of this device :-)

    Great trap

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This really has worked so well in my kitchen. We get a lot of fruit flies and gnats so it’s great. I like that the light helps and gives some light at night also. It’s a good size to keep on top of the fridge.

    Handy fly trapper

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This STEM flying insects fan trap is easy to set up & use. It can be used without a cord once it's charged which is convenient. I mainly use it in the kitchen where flies come in the door. It caught little gnats, but no flies yet. The higher up I put it & not in direct light, the better it works. Sometimes I leave it on the porch at night to catch any mosquitoes that might fly by. I can't hear it running, unless I put my ear up to it. It is lightweight & it has a timer so I can preserve the battery power. It runs while it's charging too. I like experimenting with it & seeing how to catch the most flies.

    Catches mosquitoes finally bite free

    [This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It’s so easy to use just peel back the paper to reveal the sticky platform. It comes with a lot in the refill and I was surprise to already see mosquitoes stuck onto the surface. They are lightweight and slightly heavier than an index card. It seems efficient and I had my doubts at first but it’s been on all night.
