Sharp Gear REDTOP Flycatchers Standard Size - 100% Non-Toxic Disposable Outdoor Fly Trap - Designed to Attract Egg-Laying Females

Sharp Gear: REDTOP Flycatchers Standard Size - 100% Non-Toxic Disposable Outdoor Fly Trap - Designed to Attract Egg-Laying Females

 First, I must disclose that I received my Sharp Gear Flycatcher heavily discounted, in exchange for  an honest, unbiased and quality review. So I placed my order for the Sharp Gear REDTOP Flycatcher on March 10, 2016, and received it on March 12, 2016. I am with Amazon Prime, so I was able to get free, 2 day shipping. My flycatcher arrived very, well packaged.

I immediately opened the box, to check this flycatcher out. I was worried about the flycatcher trapping my little, honey-making friends. However, due to the way it is made, bees cannot fit underneath the opening in the red top, once that is put on it. So there were three pieces to the flycatcher. There was the entire bottom part, already assembled. There was the red top that goes on top of the flycatcher. There also was a packet of powder mixture that is actually the fly bait.

Assembly is very easy. You mix the bait with 1 litter of lukewarm water, pour it in the flycatcher, and wait for it to settle. Next, you snap the red top on top of the flycatcher. After that, you take it outside and hang it up by the string attached to it.

So how does the Sharp Gear REDTOP Flycatcher Standard Size-100% Non-Toxic Disposable Fly Trap-Designed to Attract Egg-Laying Females stack up?

CONS- It's an eyesore, and you'll see why in the photo. When you first open it, the powder (fly bait) stinks to high heaven. I can see why flies are attracted to it. It has a rotten garbage smell.

PROS-Flies are REALLY attracted to this thing. I live in Georgia and the temperature had dropped a little when I first hung it up. A winged beetle-looking creature landed on the bag and was bugging me as I was hanging it up. I didn't see any flies in sight at first, and was worried about the results. But it was warmer today when I checked the flycatcher. I am looking forward to not being harassed by pesky flies when I go on my deck to barbeque and eat outside. There is definitely some science to this flycatcher.



The circles in my picture of course are flies. The first circle is a fruit fly that is hanging out, on the outside of the bag. The second circle is a regular fly settled into the mix on the inside of the bag, that met its maker. Also on the inside of the bag, floating in the liquid, were several fruit flies. I hate those worse than regular house flies.

So would I purchase Sharp Gear REDTOP Flycatchers? Absolutely!!! I can overlook the minor eyesore of a fly graveyard hanging off of my patio if it means I can be at piece while I am barbequing, eating, and playing Chess outside on my patio.

    1. There is really some science behind this one! That pic was taken right after a cold spell in GA, so the flies were not really out. You should see mine now! It looks like a fly massacre! There are plenty of dead flies in it. I even saw more helplessly trying to escape. It really works, Heather.
