Benefits

The presence of flying insects in our homes can be a constant source of irritation and inconvenience. Pesky pests like fruit flies, wasps, house flies, mosquitoes and moths have an uncanny knack for finding their way into our living spaces, causing annoyance and even potential health hazards. Traditional solutions for dealing with these winged intruders, such as fly paper, can be unsightly and ineffective, while other toxic options pose risks to our families and pets, leaving homeowners frustrated in their search for a safe and effective solution.

Enter The Fly Inn from Dr. Killigan—an aesthetically pleasing and highly effective solution for capturing and eliminating flying insects in your home. Its open-top design and large entry point make it easy for insects to enter, while the incredibly sticky glue-coated inner walls ensure they have no chance of escape. Best of all, the trapped insects remain hidden from view, leaving your windows free of unsightly dead bugs.

Gone are the days of ugly fly paper and hazardous chemicals. The Fly Inn offers a non-toxic and visually appealing solution that effectively tackles a wide range of flying insects, including fruit flies, wasps, bees, house flies, mosquitoes, and moths.

Science

The science behind The Fly Inn involves behavior and attraction mechanisms of insects. There are visual attractants such as light, color and patterns that draw insects to specific areas. Positively phototactic insects will naturally move towards light. A prime example of this behavior is any time you see flying insects around windows. This is why the Fly Inn is designed to be placed on windows and glass doors.

Studies show that flies and mosquitos are particularly attracted to blue tones, as these insects associate blue tones for being hosts.

The Fly Inn traps include a geometric pattern with various hues of blue to increase catch rates. In six unique lab tests, the trap with this visual attractant caught on average 522% more house flies than traps without a visual attractant.

If you stick these onto a window, the flies will come. I was astonished at how many flies were captured by them. They look innocuous enough. Just be sure to moisten the surface of the suction cups and press them onto clean glass. I have them at the bottom of two windows at opposite ends of my main living area, and I really don't have a problem with flies in the kitchen, which is in the middle of that area. I have tried fly papers and other attractants, but nothing works as well as these. I am very pleased.

Frequently asked questions

How many fly traps come with my order?

The Fly Inn comes with two reusable traps and four sticky inserts. For replacement inserts, Dr. Killigan’s offers a six pack with The Fly Inn Replacements.

Where do I place The Fly Inn?

Proper trap placement is the key to your success. You want to capitalize on the fact that flies are attracted to light, by placing these traps on windows or glass doors. These traps will not yield the results you desire with placement on other locations such as refrigerators, doors or walls. These traps work best at the bottom edge of the glass because the top of the trap has the largest opening for insects to enter. Clean the glass so that the plastic housing suction cups will stick well, wet the suction cups for max suction and adhere to a window or glass door. Then place the sticky trap insert inside the housing. Choose windows that seem to be high traffic or "popular hangouts" for bugs. There are usually at least two windows in a home that seem to attract bugs more than others. Place your traps on these windows. Proceed to catch flies and other bugs.

What types of bugs will The Fly Inn catch?

These traps work for house flies and other insects that fly along or crawl on windows. There are over 16,000 types of flies in North America alone. Some common types are the housefly, fruit fly, gnat, garbage fly, blow fly and drain fly. They don’t all have the same characteristics. The Fly Inn takes advantage of habits (attraction to light and windows), instead of scents. They catch bugs that are attracted to light, even when you’re not looking.

I touched the glue on the trap. How do I get it off my skin?

First, the glue is non-toxic and not harmful. But you do want to avoid contact with it because it is very sticky. If it gets on your skin, gently rub it with vegetable oil and then wash with soap and water. Repeat if necessary. You may need to move the traps a little higher than normal on the windows to keep them out of reach of pets or curious children. Just don’t move them too high, or the insects will have a harder time finding their way in.

Why are flies attracted to light?

Flies and many other insects are attracted to light due to a phenomenon known as positive phototaxis. This instinctual behavior compels them to move towards a light source. Scientists believe this behavior is because insects use light, such as the sun and the moon, for navigation.

How long do the replaceable inserts last?

These traps last until they are full. So sit back and enjoy peace of mind as your traps do all the catching for you, while also looking stylish in your home. No pesticides. No insecticides. No smells. No toxins. So you can feel confident that your loved ones are safe and secure.
