Frequently Asked Questions

Is Flies Be Gone designed for indoor or outdoor use?

It is intended for outdoor use only. The Ultra Biomass bait is composed of sterilized food materials. Pour the bait into the trap and add water. When they warm in the sun, food scents drift out of the trap and into a wide area of the atmosphere. This attracts the flies. The warmer the weather, the quicker this happens. Flies Be Gone should be placed outdoors in direct sunlight. Not indoors and not under a roof.

Does the Ultra Biomass Bait begin to attract flies immediately?

The bait must warm in the sun and the scents be carried into the atmosphere, as mentioned above. In warm weather, this begins to happen in about 2 days. In cooler climates, it can take a few more days to reach full tempo. The process can be speeded up by activating the bait with water and keeping the solution warm in a jar indoors before transferring it outdoors. In both warm and cool climates, the activation can be speeded up by adding in a pinch of your local damp soil.

Is Flies Be Gone Toxic, Poisonous, or an Insecticide?

NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. NO. Hope we have made this point clear.

Over how large an area is the trap effective?

About 50 to 100 yards (meters) radius.

What do we do with it when it is time to replace the trap?

You can safely just throw it away. Or if you are a bit adventuresome, the contents can be emptied into a garden area since the decomposing flies make an EXCELLENT natural fertilizer.

Is there an odor?

There might be as the flies begin to decompose. The best solution is to change the trap a bit more frequently.

What happens if the water evaporates due to my local climate?

The best thing is to top it up with your garden hose. There should be at least 3 inches ( 7.5 cm ) of water in the trap.

How long does it take to unpack the unit and add the bait ? In other words, ready to use?

About 45 seconds.

How big is each each shipping pack?

Each trap ships in it's individually plastic sealed pack that is one inch ( 2.5 cm ) in depth.

Does it catch other types of insects and bugs as well?

Yes. Not as well as the flies themselves, but definitely yes.

Is there a guarantee?

Yes. If you are not fully satisfied, just return the unit within 60 days of date of purchase for a full refund.
