Q: There are two stem devices that look identical to me and have the same box but one is 19.99 and this one is 17.79 what is the difference? They both say they contain the device plus one refill. They have identical product boxes so I’m a bit confused.

Q: Does it trap silverfish

submitted by Iris - 1 year ago
  • A: Great question! This is intended for gnats, mosquitoes, fruit flies and moths. Take care! – Brooklyn, STEM Consumer Care

    Brand expert
  • A: If the silverfish walks on the glue, then yes. It is merely sticky on plastic.

    submitted by213 - 1 year ago
  • A: It is advertised for flying insects so I assume no.

    submitted byRyan - 1 year ago

Q: Will this help catch clothing moths? They are so hard to get rid of.

submitted by Ash - 1 year ago
  • A: Get Cedar wood blocks. Moths do not like the smell of Cedar.

    submitted byGreat grandma M - 1 year ago
  • A: Great question. STEM Flying Insects Light Trap is a great option for all moths. However, this will only be effective against adult moths. For complete elimination, we recommend a system approach of multiple products. In order to further assist, please give us a call at 877-869-7546 (weekdays, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m. CT). We hope to hear from you soon. – Megan, SC Johnson Consumer Care

Q: Do you think this will work for cockroaches as well?

Rest assured, we recommend taking a look into our STEM Ants, Roaches & Flies to eliminate those pesky cockroaches!

Q: Are there refills included with this trap?

submitted by Mountain woman - 1 year ago
  • A: I have not purchased it yet but per the picture, it says one device and 1 refill so I assume you are paying for the device and 1 cartridge rather than having to buy the device and get a cartridge.

Effectively attracts and catches bugs in the house but not any better than a regular sticky trap. This is very discreet and guests can't tell it's a bug trap which is a big plus.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been having a really bad problem with fruit flies near my son's diaper genie. I put the stem flying insect light trap right above it and wow what a difference. Yaaaaay. Those things were getting so annoying. So happy to find something that finally works. This is a new need always in my house. Atleast for as long as my son is in diapers.

I bought this to trap flies but I am very disappointed it doesn’t work. It did catch a drain fly, gnats, fruit flies, and a small moth. I think I will wait until we go away on vacation to buy the refills. That’s when the drain flys appear. Until then, I will keep using the fly swatter and vinegar trap.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little skeptical about this, but right as summer hit the south with all of its humidity, I opened this and it was a game changer. From having fresh fruit on the kitchen table to having cookouts. This has cut down on the fly situation. The kids opening and closing the door, some always manage to creep inside. This is worth buying.

I bought this and have used it for about 3 weeks. I will buy refills and continue using it. The cartridge is kind of visible from the side and a little bit in front so I will use it in my basement near the litter box. Pros: Double sided cartridge so less wasteful. Still able to access outlet below it. Reasonably priced & often has good coupons/discounts. Cons: Cartridge is somewhat visible. Not as visually appealing to me as similar items.

Honest review, these just simply don’t work. Maybe that’s why they were on clearance, I’ve had it for weeks, it has not caught flies or gnats at all. Meanwhile my saferhome ones have caught many and I’ve even killed some near the light but they just don’t go to it. Maybe it’s specific types I dunno but many are on the saferhome one and nothing on these and I bought 3.
