I went to a friends house that has four dogs, a tiny yard and refuses to pick up the mess of the dogs. Shockingly there were NO flies!!! When I asked about the secret on how to get rid of said flies, she pointed to a jar hanging on her porch. Perplexed, I just HAD to get one and try it out.
This thing WORKS!!!!! I’ve had to empty it twice in two weeks, buying replacement food...... oh boy..... more on that in a second. This thing is a fly magnet!!! It’s absolutely genius. So let’s break this down.
The good: it means a fly trap, it’s a very simple screw on lid with four holes and a flimsy canopy for the flies. You just fill it up to the line with water, pour in what will be revealed in just a second, hang it somewhere where you don’t want flies, then check it once a week for how full it gets.
The bad: DO NOT USE AROUND COMPANY. I swear on everything that is holy, I had company and they too were impressed by the lack of flies, I thought it would be a good idea to take it down, show it off, you know... flex a little. They swore up and down that I had eaten all the gassiest foods and somehow disrespected even my neighbors, OR I had a dead body hidden and the juice had finally exploded. It’s beyond disgusting. Mixing it is the absolute worse, there is nothing to get away from it. Just use a nuclear power plant, dip it out and have a crane hang it somewhere outside.
The bottom line: the smell my disgust your inner most core, but in all reality that where you’ll find the most flies. It works so well, that I have bought the small version. It really does work, just don’t mix it in your house.

Have a fly problem? You need this trap.
I've had a seasonal problem with flies getting into the house, particularly the summer months when the heat and humidity rise. I was somewhat skeptical when I bought this trap but was willing to try it as I was getting pretty frustrated with other less successful attempts to control the fly infestation.The bottom line is that this product lives up to it's name and the five-star reviews--it performs as advertised. The photo attached to this review was taken less than two weeks after placing the trap outside, and it now contains what I can only guess are *thousands* of flies. Once this one fills up, I'll be replacing it with another.So far, I've discovered only two downsides to this trap:1) The stench is awful and only gets worse as it attracts more flies. But if that's what it takes to lure the flies into the trap, I can tolerate the smell. This trap isn't something to use indoors unless you have absolutely no sense of smell and/or don't care about the stink. Keep it away from doors and windows to prevent the stench from getting into your living space.2) The instructions say to add water to the jar as it fills up with flies in order to keep them submerged. As some other reviewers have pointed out, the flies don't get submerged and adding water only brings the mass of flies closer to the top of the container.Overall, I'm quite pleased with how well this trap works and recommend it to anyone with a fly infestation problem and who wants an effective solution.
