Gets the bugs.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I enjoyed this product. It really helped with all the bugs in summer. I like the blue light up feature too. It was easy to replace the for another sticky sheet. It was the perfect size for the wall outlet.

Good for gnats but not mosquitoes
Would RecommendBought due to the high mosquito activity in the area. Works great at catching other flying bugs but zero mosquitoes were attracted to it. I had to take care of the mosquitoes in the house by smacking them with my hands. If you have gnats issues may work better for those bugs. The light is extremely Bright. I placed it in the living room since it didn't benefit me in the bedroom when trying to catch the evil mosquito after three days of trying.

Sturdy and Effective
Would RecommendThe glow is like a night light, so it's not too intense. It's already trapped a few gnats and it's only been up for 2 days!

Great concept, mediocre practicality.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This fly trap starter kit had all the makings of really being something, and although it wasn’t completely worthless, I was disappointed on the efficiency. The light was entirely too bright during the nighttime, and it took a long time to “fill up” the first insert- more time than I have honestly. Still a great concept, I just think it could be improved a little.

Safe for pets
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] “This STEM Flying Insect Light Trap is a lifesaver! I plugged it in and within the first few hours, I already noticed a huge reduction in flying bugs around the house. It’s quiet, safe for pets, and so easy to use. I love that it doesn’t use harsh chemicals yet still works incredibly well. The soft blue light attracts bugs without being too bright or annoying at night. After a full week of use, my kitchen and living room feel so much more comfo...

With buying
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I forgot to take a picture of this but it works so well. It’s worth buying and well designed and does not look tacky. No smell at all easy to install.

Love It
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We put this next to our fruit bowl to catch any stray fruit flies or bugs that may come in with the fruit and, as you can see, it works! Highly recommend.

Great
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love these products you can use inside just as simple as plugging them into the outlet. We had a different brand that wasn't very effective but this one seems a lot better to use.

Effectiveness
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have small children who are often bitten by mosquitoes, and the bites are very strong. This product has made life much easier for my children. We have been using it for 2 months, it is quite durable and of excellent quality.

Love it
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like it. I keep it by my front and back door. I went and bought another be cause I liked it so much. It works. It has actually reduced the amount of bugs that come in. It’s pet safe. My cats don’t even realize it’s there.

Stem insect trap
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been having a really bad problem with fruit flies near my son's diaper genie. I put the stem flying insect light trap right above it and wow what a difference. Yaaaaay. Those things were getting so annoying. So happy to find something that finally works. This is a new need always in my house. Atleast for as long as my son is in diapers.

A Summer Necessity!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was a little skeptical about this, but right as summer hit the south with all of its humidity, I opened this and it was a game changer. From having fresh fruit on the kitchen table to having cookouts. This has cut down on the fly situation. The kids opening and closing the door, some always manage to creep inside. This is worth buying.

We're sorry to hear this wasn't the solution for those pesky fruit flies. We'd expect this simple trap to begin capturing as soon as the protective pe...
