[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bright blue LED light of Raid Essentials Flying Insect Light Trap is very bright. I can see how this is supposed to attract flying insects. I installed this in my bathroom where the mosquitoes have moved in. After 4 days, I have caught one mosquito while the others have been repelled away from the light. Nothing else, I now have a beautiful LED light for my bathroom! I wouldn't recommend this product as it didn't help solve my flying insect...

Fly trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I live on a farm so its normal to have flies and gnats but around this time of year they get bad. Once i received my free gift to try i placed it in ny kitchen and it does wonders catching all the flies and gnats that appear. Ive tried numerousof traps and this one is one of the best so far. I will be buying more of them. The only con i have is it dont hold much weight of bugs/insects!!

Easy, efficient and works fast
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This light trap is great if you have fruit flies or any little flying pest. I had some bananas that I wanted to be really ripe to make banana bread with and attracted fruit flies. I plugged the light in and all of them were gone. This is a lot easier than mixing something up and works a lot better. I will definitely keep one of these insect light traps in my home especially during the hotter months.

So cool
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This gives fly trap a whole new face. I must admit, this is the coolest flying insect trap I've ever owned. If it's got wings it's attracted to this plug in light and it's so easy to clean up and mess free. I love it I'm gonna buy refills for mine for sure and I definitely recommend this product to everyone having issues with gnats or flies or even moths and mosquitoes this thing really does the trick!

Genius Insect Light Trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product complimentary in exchange for a review. This plug in light traps flying insects in the house. I like that it looks like a night light but it isnt very noticeable either. The blue light draws the flies to it and traps them with the sticky trap. I've had it set up for almost a week and some knats have already been trapped on it. I'm liking this device so far!

WORKS Perfect
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We had this plugged in for about -two weeks- and caught quite a few little buggers. We have fruit flies or gnats, tiny moths, and I've seen mosquitoes in the house occasionally. I really like the chemical insecticide free option. I don't use any chemical insecticides inside or outside! So this is a great choice for my household. Easy to use and it's working well in the kitchen! Very happy with this insect trap.

Insect Light Trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had this product plugged in for about a week and it has not attracted any insects yet, though I have seen a couple gnats/flies in my home. Also, as someone with a dog I will say dog hair does get stuck in the pad. Hopeful this will offer more benefit as time goes on. The light is a bright blue, which doesn't bother me, but could be considered too bright for some.

I couldn't believe this worked!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I couldn't believe how well this worked! My kids are constantly leaving the door open from running in and out. I put up a magnetic screen door, but moths and stuff still get in at night. As soon as I plugged this in, the moths were attracted in no time. I would advise putting it close to your door so the insects find it easily. I'll definitely be purchasing refills for this.

Great compact solution for flying pests
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received this product and put it to work immediately. It was very simple to set up and helped me fight a fruit fly infestation. I just turned off my lights at night and plugged it in and in the morning there were already several bugs stuck to the sticky sheet. I would highly recommend this and it is aesthetically pleasing to look at, it just looks like a blue night light.

Dont Throw Out The Fly Swatter!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I received the Raid Essentials Flying Insect Light Traps from Influenster & Raid for my honest review. This product is a night light with an added plastic square that is sticky on both sides. It's been plugged in my kitchen for one week. So far, it's trapped one moth, two gnats, and zero flies. It's summer, kids are going in and out, and flies sneak in. I truly despise those flies.

Pet friendly insect trap!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so excited when I saw the notification about this product! As a dog mom I never want to use chemicals at home or anything that will harm my pets or my family in general. So for that reason this Raid Essentials trap gets 5 stars! We need more eco friendly products that so the job and this product will of course trap all those annoying mosquitos and flies!

Excellent Product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After getting some fruit flies in the house we decided it was time to plug this sucker in and see how it worked. It seems pretty benign and offers a light blue glow and it does the job! Not long after plugging it in we had some yucky little bugs attached to the park sticky trap. We are happy with the results and will buy more refills for our trap!

Great night light and for gnats
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After a few days of moving it around the house it finally started catching very small insects. I noticed a couple regular flys were landing on the light part, but not the adhesive. Now I have had this for a few weeks and the result is the same. It's only catching the smallest insects. Works great as a nightlight, but not so well as a bug catcher.

Works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Have had this plugged in for a few days now and its caught two small gnats. It hasn't worked for the house flies that sometimes make their way inside. I like that it works via light and sticky pads with no chemicals or toxins, which is important to me since i have inside pets. Will keep it going and see what else is catches.

Annoying fruit flies!!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have been wanting one of these after my brother had one and it had over a dozen flies on it after just a few days! Influenster sent this to me for free and I was so happy they did! It has a built in night light and catches all those aggravating flies flying around! WORTH IT! Y'all should go try it out!

Sleek and Useful!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Raid Essentials Flying Insect Light Trap is a wonderful way to discreetly trap flying insects that make their way into your home. Ours was placed near the backdoor of our home, an exit used frequently to let our dog out in the yard. The trap is silent with a sleek look. It acts as a night light as well!

Really wanted to like this
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the idea here and the packaging / light is wonderful but here's my issue. We plugged this in about 2 weeks ago and during that time, I know for a fact we've had several flies and mosquitos fly in from the backyard. After 2 weeks, the trap has caught.... 3 gnats. A bit disappointed by that.

Super easy to set up!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm so excited to try this out! I've seen it all over social media and I am thrilled to give it a try! This was incredibly easy to set up! Just peek the stickers off and pop the refill into the plastic holder and plug in. Can't wait to see how many flys and gnats we trap!!

So far I like it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've only used it for a few days so far and I really like it. We have a reptile and dog in the home and I don't like using chemicals, especially insect spray. This has worked really well so far. There's already a couple bugs in the trap. I will keep using again in the future.
