Catchmaster Non-Toxic Outdoor Reusable Fly Trap, 6-Pack

Having even just one fly in your home can feel like a nuisance, let alone several of them. Flies can carry and spread diseases as they land on food items, dishes and children’s toys. If you want to get rid of the flies in your space, it’s time to take some proactive steps.

A reusable fly trap is an economical way to get rid of flies. As the name suggests, you can use the same trap multiple times over a long period of time. There are a few different types of reusable fly traps you can try. A bait container is a reservoir that contains some kind of attractant inside. The vessel has a wide opening that gets smaller and smaller as flies go in deeper, making it impossible for them to get out once they are in.

Another kind of fly trap is sticky tape. The tape has a sticky surface that the flies get attached to when they land on it. A bug-zapping machine is another kind of reusable fly trap. This type uses electricity to kill the flies when they come into contact with the device.

• How do you know which reusable fly trap is right for you? It all depends on your space and your needs. For example, if you have small children or pets, you may want to stay away from any kind of insect trap that includes poison, as that can harm your loved ones as well. In this case, a sticky tape trap may be your best bet.
• Bait containers are highly effective both indoors and outdoors. Some are specially designed for outdoor space, so be sure not to bring those kinds of traps into your home, as they may have an unpleasant odor you don’t want in your living room.
• Reusable fly traps are not just for your home — you can actually bring them with you. If you’re going camping, for example, having a bug trap is a good idea to place near your campsite. You can also set one near your outdoor garbage bins where flies may congregate.
