KATCHY Indoor Insect and Flying Bugs Trap Fruit Fly Gnat Mosquito Killer with UV Light Fan Sticky Glue Boards No Zapper White

Works as expected and does the job as expected. This is my 3rd Katchy, now have one in every bedroom.

I bought two of these because we were dealing with a hostage situation and I was desperate. I repotted a plant and apparently the soil was the Trojan horse. Anyways. I love these. I love how effective they are. I used all 8 sticky traps in two weeks and they were all disgustingly full with treasonous flies. I don’t even know where the flies were coming from, but they just kept coming to the machine. I swapped out the traps every few days. I recommend having a container of some kind to put the old traps in to wait for all the bugs to die. This way you don’t restart an out break from the garbage. When the traps get full there’s obviously less sticky surface left and you get some flies that are trapped in the machine but not dead yet. I just used the plastic the traps came in. There’s reviews saying it didn’t work….. I’m wondering if y’all didn’t know to put the sticky side up cause I have no clue how this wouldn’t work. My only complaint is that the refill pads are expensive. I don’t mind the initial investment into the machine, but a set of 4 per machine is just not enough when dealing with an outbreak.

It's not working on fruit flies, masquitoes. Not to buy

This thing actually works. After trying numerous other ways of catching gnats this is the one that has been the best by a long shot.

I researched Katchy online and ordered this item because it shows it is a Katchy. It isn’t. It says SOHOW. I don’t mind, but I paid more for this thinking it was the real thing - you can buy knock-offs for a few pounds on other websites. It took quite a while to arrive (I didn’t mind waiting for the real thing...), so it missed the infestation of midges In our kitchen. I haven’t used it much so far therefore, and can’t really say whether it’s effective or not. If it turns out to be really good I will update this review to say so - the two star rating is for being sold a replica instead of a Katchy.
