[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Make sure you read the instructions and have the sticky side available to catch bugs. I was super impressed by how many bugs it trapped in a few days. So much so that I went and got a refill to catch more. I also like the blue light in our kitchen so if I get water at night I can see but aren't blinded.

Really great product
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was pleasantly surprised with how well this has worked! We live in the south where you just can't get rid of bugs, especially in the summer. Now it's winter so the true test will be as it warms up, but it's done great so far to help with any pests that may wander in!

Doesn't work
Very disappointed with the results. We have lots of fruit flies around the house all the time but look at the amount of flies being caught after 3 months , very few . I have it installed right by the sink where I usually have my veggies scraps , but it catches no flies at all . I was expecting it to catch more than that because I used the other sticky trap before and it worked so well . Not worth the money .

It Works But It's BRIGHT
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used to have a small gnat problem, and this solved it almost immediately! But the one big drawback is how bright the light is. I mean it is BEAMING. I keep mine in my kitchen near the trash can and I can see the glow from my bedroom with the door closed. If you're someone who likes total darkness when you sleep, this could be a big drawback. I was also worried that changing it out would be gross, but you can easily take it out without touchin...

Works really well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We leave it plugged in 24/7 and it catches so many little bugs throughout the month! It took a couple days at first to catch anything, but it totally works after the first day or two.

Very good
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It works very well and refills are fairly prized. I definitely recommend to have around the kitchen it lasts a long time and is a cute night light in my opinion

Perfect as a nite lite
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Not too impressed with this product. I was expecting better results. It did catch some fruit flies but not as effective as I thought it would be. I do love the light it gives off. Perfect for a nite lite in the kitchen.

Super sticky!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Surprisingly sticky! I actually loved this. Doubles as a night light. We actually got this during gnat season. Which was perfect! It caught all of them. Even accidentally caught a plastic bag. I placed a bag on top of my toaster and it is right next to where it was placed. But still worked even after trying to pull off the bag. I would recommend this to anyone. I love that I don't have to spray or make traps.

Works
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So in the summer we get these fruit flies bad in my kitchen. This saved me. It worked so well and kept all the fruit flies away. It made life so much simpler. Usually I have to keep sprays I. My house and those stupid tape strips but this worked and you never even knew it was there

An effective insect trap
Raid Essentials Flying Insect Light Trap is peace of mind, powered by Raid. I recently had to bring all my tropical plants indoor when the temperature dropped and it seemed like the fruit flies and gnats came from them. They were multiplied so fast, thousands of them flying every where in the house. I've tried soap with apple cider vinegar but it only killed a few of the colony. I went to ask for help on a gardening group and they recommended this product. I purchased 3 and plugged 2 by the plan...

Okay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Didn't catch anything the first week. We had a small nat and fly problem due to plants. I thought the light would attack them, but didn't. I won't be buying this again.

Catches most bugs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product definitely catches a large number of bugs! We still had some hanging around but I suppose not all bugs respond to light. Super sticky!

Great idea However Product is just terrible
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's been plugged in for a long period of time in an area that was experiencing fruit flies. Only 1 fruit flu was attracted to the light Landing on the stick pad I still have it plugged up I use it for a night light basically and it has yet to catch anything. The idea is a great one maybe a substance can be applied to attract the bugs.

Works great plus a light
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this product I was sent by influencer! The trap works great and was filling up with in a few days during warm weather. It's a bonus that it doubles as a night light!

Works great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This insect trap is great for my kitchen. The blue light has such a nice glow. The light attracts all the fruit flies and now I have no issues with any of them.

Goody for busy areas
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We placed this close to an area that has a door that we open frequently and it worked well. Upstairs or in the less trafficked spaces of the house not so much.

Worked but did t last
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It worked and trapped flies but it wasn't anything special like other fly traps. It dosent last long and need to buy more inserts. I would recommend if you can keep up with the inserts, the light does attract and not too bright at night
