I use the fly papers in the kitchen, they are not exactly pretty but they catch the flys. I don’t use sprays as I have 2 dogs. The fly papers are perfectly safe for the dogs
We have recently moved to the country and I am amazed at the sheer number of flies that get into the house through open doors and windows., especially in the summer months that we have so far been here. These fly strips are a must, we have them hanging up near each front and back door and near the kitchen too. They work well.
This works very well in killing flies. Worth buying it have flys in house.
Really effective at catching flies. Highly recommend. Look a bit unsightly but wirth it to get rid of annoying flies
Soooo good. I forgot to put my bins out before going away for a week in summer and came home to fruit flies so yup….I hung them up and minutes later flies started sticking to trap. Ideal just to clean the kitchen now xx
Good old fashioned sticky strips like my Gran used to use. Even good for keeping children away if you hang near the cupboard where you keep the chocolate bars.
I don’t like flies. Inherently I’m not a card-carrying member of the Flies fan club. Flies outside, doing their fly’y thing, fine by me. Come into my kitchen and you’re going to meet Mr Teat Owl. Except said Owl is a bit rubbish at killing flies, but very good at smashing other stuff around the kitchen work surface.
So I resorted to playing the long game. A series of sticky adornments hanging from the ceiling, calling to the little blighters like a Siren-esque temptress. Within minutes the first unfortunate fellow fell foul of my trap. More followed, oblivious to the dying screams of the rest of their micro-squadron. It transpired that the tape doesn’t dry out, and keeps on doing its evil work until you walk into it and are smeared with the catch of previous days/weeks. You will stick to these papers just as effectively as any wingd creature – ask me how I know…
I also felt bad seeing them struggle for many hours as their life force slowly ebbed away, the Teat Owl was always a quicker despatcher of flies. Still, they came into MY kitchen and made maggots in MY bin!
Note to the cautious, the drawing pins supplied are pretty much a single-use version. Once you need to move the fly-killing decoration they won’t work a second time. Of course, you won’t need them when you’re removing it from your hair…{ask me how I know}
Hung in kitchen in various places. Much more affective than the fly zapper we have for the annoying type of fly that buzzes on and off your food, around your head and seems to invite all their mates in for the same kind of partywith the addition of these strips, the fly party didn’t end well for many of the guests!
Flies love them they can’t wait for me to get them out.
Put in the window and it caught flies, very sticky, try not to get it on yourself
There isn’t much to say about these other than they just work.
We’ve tried every method we could find to get rid of flies and finally found that a combination of these traps with a can of Raid is the perfect match. They attract flies really well and make sure they stick once they land. We will easily fill one of these in two days so the fact you get so many in a pack is really good value.
If you want to get rid of flies and have a place to hang these in a ‘high fly traffic’ area then absolutely pick them up.
Does exactly what it says but it can be challenging to put up without getting some residue on your fingers.
Love the product! We had an infestation of flies around 2 weeks ago. As soon as I glued one trap to the ceiling we had about half of them stuck in it. I was stunned by fast the traps worked. Recommend it if you are wanting to get rid of flies in less than an hour!
Ok, believe the picture says it all. Im truly satisfied that I spend money on a product that works really great.
This was a simple pick up use tongues, and put on the ceiling. Does the job very well, thank god as well got tired of those pesky flies
Used in a kitchen, but also in a plum tree outside to protect ripening plums. Catches flies far more effectively than the electronic devices that I have tried.
I had a fly infestation and this glue caught multiple flies after hanging it around my curtain pole where the window is, so when the flies entered (somehow?) it would trap the flies.
Smells like off disinfectant no wonder flys don’t go near i
Within the first few seconds, those annoying lil flies stuck to the sheet. This thing is soo sticky lol it got caught on my arm hairs and couldn’t wipe it off until I showered well worth it. Literally after 24hours, those suckers have gone.
Caught over 30 horse flies in a day on one. I’ve put them up all over and found they are more effective when him hung lower down, almost floor level
Might not look the best hanging off the ceiling but my god it’s satisfying and quite addictive when you see how many flies get stuck to it.
Making side bets with the family to see who does the dishes was brilliant fun ( if you had the closest number of flies)
We brought these as we were so fed up of swatting flies constantly!! Fly season is the worse!! Anyway they are amazing! We have three up, dotted around downstairs and have caught so many flies! We give a little cheer each time haha! We used cable ties to hang ours up, using the hooks we have!
Just hang it up and wait. Just pull out the string on the top of the cartridge and the sticky paper comes out. I ued a bent metal paper clip to make a hook to hang it from the lampshade. Absolutely brilliant!
Really effective at killing flies. Be careful when installing and removing as they are very sticky. Would you want a strip of dead flies stuck to your face? I have used these for a couple of seasons and they effectively control flying pests.
Some kinda animal poo on my onion and then I put the trap next to it, this is what happened. I can kill them in groups
I only had them delivered today, and I didn’t realise I had such a fly problem. I thought I would of had to have one up for awhile but within a minute it had already caught 2 of the little pests in so impressed. I’m hoping by the end of the day I will be able to take it down. 16 are going to last me awhile but when I run out I would definitely buy again I may give some out to family members if they need any.
These are super easy to use and honestly sorted out the fly issue in a matter of hours.
I purchased this item after a huge house fly infestation, not only are they great value for money and simple to use they actually work!!
if you do not mind them hanging from your ceiling, they work. We have cats so cannot spray fly killer, so these are great at catching and killing the pesky flies.
The fly trapper works and Im not aware of scent.
Surprisingly, I have received more than I ordered. One package has been delivered by Amazon driver and the other one arrived by royal mail. It’s working despite disgusting looks when covered in flies.
Work well, without using a spray. Tried and tested for years.
I love these. Will defo be buying more when needed.
I like this as they arrived really fast got rid off the flys and then since then I’ve been using my fly electric batt if I see a random fly ! There value for money n 10 outta 10 seller !
Found the red loop sometimes would break off completely and couldnt then hang it up. It is definitely super sticky so be careful putting them up. It took a few days before the flies (and mosquitos surprisingly) to start landing on it, as soon as the first few got stuck the rest pretty much followed suit pretry quick. So many in a pack that I am ready for the next few summers.
We are currently having a plague of fruit flies, and while I haven’t found the source yet, these strips are effective in catching ones flying around. Ghoulishly fascinating to see how many are caught each day! They are very sticky, so have to be handled carefully – avoid getting them near soft furnishings or delicate surfaces.
I won’t post any gross photos of all the lives I’ve ended on the sticky trap I’ve set up (although it is strangely satisfying…I wonder what that says about me), but safe to say, these do work! I was happy with the price although I think this is like a 20 year supply. Anyway, would I buy again? Sure, if I ever run out. Would I recommend? Yes! I have had a consistent problem with fungas gnats of late due to the mini garden centre I seem to have going on in my house and these strips (along with drying out the soil) are a great weapon in my arsenal and save the bones in my hands from slapping all those pesky gnats.
There is something quite special about watching a filthy disgusting fly get stuck to one of these and strugglesometimes for days at a time. They are incredibly effective and safe to use.
I don’t advocate harming any animal, but observing those pesky flies suffer is incredibly satisfying. It’s better than Eastenders.
The price is decent and the effectiveness of these are great, Had 3 weeks away from home but forgot to empty a trash bag which had left over food products and other items which rot. Lets just say when i got home with it being closed off for the whole period with heating turning on and off. It was a complete disaster when i walked in, with thousands of flies all over my home. I used 32 of these strips plus 2 cans of fly killer. Combined was brilliant, Now the strips themselves are incredibly sticky which is great for anything landing on them but using the cord to extend the tape from the tube can sometimes cause the cord to fail. For 7quid for 16 on a smaller scale than what i had to do deal with. These would work wonders. I was dealing with meat flies but so many fruit flies and it caught so many. took around 48 hours to clear the house completely using a combination of strips + cans. If for what ever reason i needed some more of these i wouldn’t hesitate.
I found these very effective, they’re really sticky, the only problem is that that 2 of them just randomly tore and I needed them to stay whole. Other than that, I can’t fault them.
Works perfectly only problem is it takes a while for the flies to die so you hear them panicking for a couple of hours which is really sad but it really does work no ore flies in the house
The little flies would refuse to shift. As soon as you installed this stuff, they all say HELL NO. WE’RE OFF lol.
Fantastic product and very sticky paper.. I coulpe of tips on how to use it.
1. Use a hair dryer to warm it up a little..
2. Hang it right under a light source where flies like to gather.
Brilliant product.. highly recommended
Sometimes (most times) the old ways are the best. A bit sticky to handle but that’s the point, they’re sticky. 1 string broke off.
1 tube came away prematurely but the majority work fine.
Put 3 up and within minutes we had caught some flies. I left 1 hanging in an out building and after a month it was absolutely covered. Not the prettiest of designs but this is definitely function over form. They are so efficient you won’t need to hang them for long if looks worry you.
Highly recommended. KISS, every time.
Keep It Simple Stupid.
These sticky papers do their job. Many fruit flies coming out of my plant pots are caught by them. They are good at reducing the number of flies but not the permanent solution cause these flies leave their eggs on the plant soil. Not overwatering and watering only from the bottom is the permanent solution. Besides, you need to reduce the number of the mature ones and these papers are helpful in tha
The fly papers came in a neat plastic pouch, which is useful for storage. Each one had its own drawing pin (thumb tack) which made it easy to hang the papers from wooden beams. Starting to extract the papers from the cases was sometimes fiddly (they weren’t all the same) and could make your fingers sticky. Once set up the papers did not smell nor do anything to positively attract the flies, they simply caught what ever landed on them. Hanging them near a light resulted in many flies and some wasps being caught. Disposal was then simply a matter of unhooking the loop at the top of the paper from the drawing pin.
Got these put up in my bunny area as I store my bin bags on a table until bin day and didn’t want to use a spray but there were a couple of annoying flies and the spiders could only do so much.
Within 5 minutes of putting two up there were half a dozen flies stuck to them. I hadn’t even realised there were that many flies around. They’ve been up a few days and have caught a fair few flies each, and there are none around the bins or the bunnies.
Only problem I had was when moving a ladder to fix a light I forgot one was nearby and bumped it, it stuck to the ladder and pulled out of the roof so I carefully removed it, climbed up to put it back, but with it being wound out it was incredibly hard and ended up stuck to my hand, sleeve and hair (thankfully a non fly covered part) and not pinning back into the wooden roof. With some patience and a new drawing pin, it’s back up now, but wow, it’s really sticky stuff. Great value and will last a while out there till I get a proper fly zapper in the summer.
Easy to set up and you’ll see a definitely improvement in days
I hate flies. I think they know and keep away from this sticky paper, but it does work for some.
Sticky as hell, but didn’t attract flies at all. It seems the little pests only get caught if they happen to land on the paper buy accident. This situation could be improved by filling the dangling container with apple vinegar, but that doesn’t really make up for the fact that the product does not conform to its description.
Or maybe I am simply playing host to a special species of fruit fly.
I originally bought these to catch a few annoying small flys but These things caught probably about 200! I had no idea there were so many and there was no obvious place where they were hiding, very weird but these got them all and you just throw them straight in the bin 🙂
This set arrived simply packed and in perfect condition.
Houses around here all seem to have fly problems, either because they’re just popular or because they’re old, or because of the nearby canal.
We’ve tried all sorts but old fashioned fly papers are the most effective.
This set has plenty in, and they’re basic generic papers. Not the best we’ve had but certainly not the worst.
The main issue is trying to unroll them without it all going terribly wrong.
Either the paper breaks leaving a teeny tiny short strip.
Or it sticks to absolutely everything except where it’s meant to go.
Once in place they’re mostly effective and don’t have that weird strong smell.
I will be ordering more.
Thanks for reading, I hope you find this review helpful.
We had little bother with flies this year till the end of August. We hung these up and they worked once the bottom got full of flies! They were obsessed with the non sticky yellow tube.
Once that got busy they started getting caught on the full paper.
We hung up 3 and caught well over 50 flies on each one.
We have often used these and they are always effective
Couldn’t believe how well these worked! Within a few hours they had already caught several flies. Only had to leave them hanging for two days and the house was pretty much rid of flies except for a few that seemed to evade the strips.
You have to be patient when pulling the tape out of the tube, too quick and it just tears. The glue is very sticky so probably best to wear gloves when handling. May seem a little obvious but found the strips worked best where the flies congregate (mostly at the windows in our home) or in walkways, doorways. Just don’t forget you’ve hung it there haha
Had some flies about and the cat was being useless, so I put two of these up.
After 2 days there were no flies on them – but there was a lot of cat fur, and my partner had become tangled in them numerous times.
I guess they work?
Sticky Comes complete the pin to hang up . Does what it says
RUBBISH DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY
HEAP PINS CHEAP PAPER
PINS KEPT BENDING LEAVING THE STOCKY PAPER IN MY HAND WASTED LOTS OF VINYL GLOVES
I’m pleased with this purchase (a) because they catch the flies and (b) because this was a cheap option.
Once the fly lands on the paper they can’t get away and very quickly die. We live in the country now and so have more flies around than when we lived in London. This is just a fact of rural life. However, the flies were becoming a real nuisance but each fly paper strip will catch dozens of flies before you need to throw it away and put a new one up. Job done!
I work in a warehouse next door to a recycling plant so our breakroom quickly filled with flies in the summer. set up a couple of these around the room and by the next morning they had snagged almost all of the flies. now we can eat our lunch in peace without looking like we’re in kung-fu movies.
Good old fashioned sticky fly strip. Does exactly what it says on the packet catches flys. Great. Two observations take care deploying them get the goo on your fingers it’ll take ages to remove and be careful where you place them I keep brushing against mine and they stick to you just as they do to flys.
Flies drive me crazy – I have lots of food covers etc, but even so the disgusting creatures buzz about in the house constantly during the summer – the best solution is these fly papers. The glue is fruit based, non toxic and very strong, and one hung in the kitchen caught six flies in half an hour. I simply take it down and drop it into the dustbin, and hang a fresh one. They are so cheap – and so much better than toxic sprays and the blue light gadgets which evidently explode the fly all over the room!
This product works really well, you just have to be a but patient. The flies don’t stick to it straight away, but the second day they were all flocking to it. Highly recommend.
Like a lot of people in the UK this summer, my house has been plagued with flies – slightly exacerbated in my area due to the bin men going on strike and having a big guinea pig hutch by the back door, which we have had open a lot to let some air into the house.
I’m currently doing a much-needed decoration of my old dining room/now home office and noticed a little gang of them like to use my chrome Sputnik light as their club house (I like to imagine much like the characters in the Michael Jackson video ‘Beat It’ although no shivs were detected). Their resulting mess was marking the chrome. Now, I’m not usually one to kill little creatures (actually I’m a soft wuss in that respect, I have a crisis every time I step on a snail!) but I am not having them damaging my lovely light.
I bought these fly papers after looking at several options – mainly due to the cheap price, I must admit, my train of thinking that if they didn’t work, I wasn’t much out of pocket. I hung a couple of strips from the light itself and in less than 24 hours, the fly gang have all met their untimely demise. It’s even caught some mozzies and fruit flies I didn’t realise had also taken up residence.
Four stars though as obviously they are not aesthetically pleasing. I’ve hung two more over my kitchen bin and the oven to catch anything in the kitchen but not so successful – so it may be a case that you need to place these where the flies actively hang out. Also, it’s not been intrusive to life in the house to hang these from the light fitting right now due to me decorating but it would be normally. Luckily I’m not a tall person!
easiest to use, no topping up or respraying, lasts a good season, for the scientists, you can see the worst areas and villains. Generally a quick kill with no local side effects.
I don’t notice them, hanging (obviously pulled down enough so it doesn’t get your hair) and the kill rate is evidently good and seems the be better than all other techniques put together unless you are a fly ninja!
With the warm weather comes the flies , first we tried an electronic zapper then fly spray but these disgusting contraptions work the best, they are extremely effective and solved our fly problem overnight. One problem is the red string used to hang them up falls off when the packaged is opened so clearly a design flaw, if it wasn’t for that I would have given the product a five star rating as it is very effective and good value for money.
The best set of fly paper I’ve ever used.
Caught its first fly in 5 seconds after being hung up.
Catches small and large equally well.
The only downside is having so many dead flies hung up.
Attached pins were useful for hanging, but you can also use the attached ribbon loop if it’s easier.
First of they do work but there not great.
I seen fly’s just go past my ones. But it has caught a couple.
Pain in the A## to stick up it sticks coming out of the roll and often just turns into a tube so you have to unwind them and twist slowly.
To take them down just pull the nail out but I found it sticks to you as well.
They work but not great.
Good value for money, easy to use. Clear instructions on back of packaging.
Some handy fly papers which seem to be going out of fashion these days but good value for what you get and the handy tweezers make putting them up easy.
Super sticky but flies just seen to fly all around and avoid it. I’ve only caught two of the many flies that are buzzing round the kitchen.
Revised review- 2 days further on and I’ve caught 8 flies. Looks horrible but it’s working well.
Pretty unsightly hanging around. And if your tall be careful where you place them! Other than that does what ot says on the ti
Once I sprinkled it with sugar it started working. Had an invasion of about 100-150 flies that hid inside a and it was horrible. Took me about 10 days and about 10 of those spirals to solve the problem. Its very satisfying watching them flies stick to their death. Hehehehe.
Bought this for my dad who kept complaining about flies on one hand, and sprays to remove flies. Perfect solution for British summers that get humid and nasty, especially when you’re home due to lock down. It’s a smart contraption. But bare in mind:
– Not the most appealing thing to look at. It is a tape hanging with flies stuck on it. At your own risk of puking if you place near or kitchen. I nearly did when I came to see my father had put it in the dining area. . However, that is a testimony to its ability to work
– At first, it is fiddly, sticky and difficult to place in the ceiling but persist and find alternative ways. I hanged it on light pendants.
These fly traps are very sticky! Any files which come into contact will have no chance of becoming unstuck.
They’re a bit fiddly to unwind without getting sticky fingers but easy enough to clean off.
Flies aren’t attracted to these, it’s purely that they’re sticky and reliant on a fly coming into contact.
They don’t look the best but do help to some extent.
Over all they work well, it would be good if flies where attracted to it some how rather than relying on luck that they hit it.
Does what it says on the tube but a bit fiddly to get out of the tube. Once in place it works really well, think it must have some sort of toxin on it cos those flies that can get off there do die elsewhere. So an all round win. My only problem was getting it to unroll out of the tube and not getting stuck to hell in the process. I’ve used 5 of these now and ended up with really sticky fingers, im not put off by this as the end product does what it says it will do. These are a lot thicker than others I’ve used and do stay in one length as your making your sticky way to unrolling it.
Although these seem simple and old fashioned they do the job. We have tried all sorts of things as the flies drive my dogs nuts. Most products including one that are much more expensive just do not work. These don’t look great and beware where you hang them to avoid getting your hair caught. But boy do they do the job and we will definitely stick to these in the future. They are simple but effective and I would definitely recommend.
I really hate these but they do the job. They are sticky as hell, look disgusting and you need to find somewhere to hang them but if none of that bothers you then yes – they work.
We seem to have had a real problem with flies on the house over the last few weeks. These haven’t solved the problem completely but have definitely helped. Good value for money considering the amount you get, and they come in a handy zip lock pouch to keep them all tidy when stored away. I have one in several different rooms, and have trapped a few flies which is better than nothing. Would definitely buy again.
Ordered this to cure a fly problem (they are after the pet food) and was not really expecting much. Initially I thought it wasn’t working but, then, after a few hours, several flies had “bitten the dust” – and we’ve not looked back since. Just give it a bit of time and just one strip has effectively cleared the problem up! One tip tho – it really is sticky so be careful when extracting the paper – but it really does it’s job thereafter! 🙂
Used this to capture fruit flies/gnats. Very effective and satisfying, although nasty! I saw a couple flies touch it and they didn’t stand a chance, it’s so sticky. I caught so many after a couple days, I threw the strips out and hung new ones. I had no idea there were that many flies in my home. Pull out of the canisters very slowly as the strips can tear if you tug too fast. I hope I don’t have to buy more but will buy them again if I ever need to.
I live on a farm and flies are always an issue in the summer, these caught hundreds upon hundreds for me and kept me sane. Only down side is if you aren’t super careful with opening them they will tear and rip. Also some wasn’t as sticky as others, but for the amount you receive for the price i think they are worth it, recommend.
These don’t smell of anything in particular. They do a very good job of trapping and killing flies but the downside is their appearance as they are sticky strips, which end up dotted completely with dead flies and the temptation is to keep replacing them so as not to be looking at a fly graveyard. That said they are super effective. Just don’t look great in a kitchen!
Bit expensive for what they are. Only work if they’re placed in a high fly traffic area (often the middle of the room.) pain to get out of hair or fur (use oil) and pretty unsightly but that’s not an issue with this brand specifically. Lost one start because some of the loops you’re meant to hang it by come off.
Very effective fly strips,but be careful,their VERY sticky,dont touch with your fingers.
We found that a number of new house plants were infested with fungus gnats and before we realised what was going on they had spread to other house plants and we would see flies in most rooms of the house. We used this flypaper in conjunction with Neudorff Plant Flycatchers and fly spray applied directly to the soil of the plants.
Over the course of about 6-8 weeks each roll of flypaper we had hung up captured about 80 -100 of the annoying creatures and eventually there was no sign of fungus gnats in the house.
