Indoor environments such as residential or commercial kitchens, including areas like countertops and zones where food is prepared or stored
Application
To use the Riddy Fruit Fly Trap, remove the cap to activate. Position the trap in spots where fruit flies are frequently seen—such as near produce, on counters, or around prep surfaces. The specially designed funnel neck guides flies inside while preventing their escape. Inside, the flies are drawn to the 15 ml liquid attractant and become trapped at the bottom. Each unit remains effective for several months.

1. How long does each fruit fly trap last once opened?
Each trap is designed to remain effective for several weeks to months, depending on the level of infestation and environment. For best results, replace when the attractant appears full of flies or has evaporated.
2. Is the trap safe to use near food prep areas and kids?
Yes! It uses a food-grade vinegar attractant and contains no pesticides, making it safe to place in kitchens and dining spaces. Just be sure to keep it out of direct reach of small children as a general precaution.
3. Will this trap eliminate the entire fruit fly infestation by itself?
While the trap helps significantly reduce adult fruit fly populations, it’s important to also identify and clean breeding sources—like drains, trash bins, or overripe produce—for full control.
4. Can I reuse the trap or refill it with my own attractant?
The traps are designed for single-use and optimal performance with the included attractant. Refilling isn't recommended, as it may compromise effectiveness or the non-leak design.
