Description

STEM Flying Insect Light Trap is an easy, mess-free option for attracting and trapping a variety of flying insects like house flies, fruit flies, gnats, mosquitoes, and moths. Use this discreetly-designed flying insect trap in any indoor room where insects are present, especially around fruit, trash cans, garages and entryways. Enjoy the odor-free, soft blue light technology that traps insects with no chemical insecticides. We crafted our moth and mosquito trap to be people, plant, and pet-friendly* for 24/7 continuous attraction. It’s easy to use and install. Simply remove protective peels, insert the dual-sided adhesive cartridge into the flying insect trap base, plug in to the wall, and position using the customizable 90-degree rotating plug and leave on 24/7. No need to touch any bugs or get your hands sticky. Replace the cartridge every month or when cartridge is full of bugs. This bug trap is compatible with Raid Essentials light trap refills as well. *when used as directed

DIRECTIONS FOR USE: Use in any room where you see flying insects. For household use only. 1 - Remove the protective peels on both sides of the refill. 2 - Insert the refill into the device base. 3-Plug the trap into a wall socket near common insect hangouts. The trap should be positioned UPRIGHT. When blue light is on, it starts to work. 4. Keep the trap plugged in 24/7. When full, unplug the trap and replace with a new refill. FOR BEST RESULTS: Place traps in areas with heavy flying insect activity and keep plugged in 24/7. Replace cartridge when it’s full of insects. Check refill often and dispose of it when the cartridge is full of insects. Replace refill every month for best performance.

The bugs were laughing at me

Didn't catch a single gnat. Not even a spec of dust. I'm very happy other people have had luck with this but the gnats in my apartment were not drawn to it in the slightest.

10/10 Must have

This product is amazing! I have small kiddos who constantly leave my doors open in the summer and all sorts of bugs end up in the house. The proof is on the pad with this! It defintely works best at night when all the other lights are off, but you wake up to multiple bugs trapped on the sticky and it feels incredibly successful! Would defintely recommomend and will continue to buy over and over again!

I had this in three different spots over two weeks and it only caught two fruit flies. Meanwhile if I left my coffee out for two minutes I’d find five flies in it. Don’t waste your money

I’ve had this plugged in for 4 days and have gotten zero flying insects!! I bought this because of the relatively favorable reviews and wanted something “cleaner” but I will be shopping for something else! I would not recommend this product to anyone!

What a bunch of crushed dreams.

Garbage! I can’t believe this thing has good reviews. Maybe I’ve got the world’s smartest fruit flies because after 3 days of having this blue light going I’ve caught a grand total of 0 fruit flies and it’s not for lack of them around the light. I’m flabbergasted and annoyed and still hosting a fruit fly slumber party in the kitchen.

Its Okay

I bought this one because it was a bit cheaper. The blue part isn’t connected to the light and is extremely sticky. It sticks on stuff super easily. Has not worked that well, so I went and bought the more expensive one and it has worked wonders compared to this. Mine also had a funny smell being plugged into the wall for couple hours.
