“An Absolute Game-Changer for My Stable!”
I’ve been using the Captivator Fly Trap for over six months now, and I can confidently say it’s one of the best fly control products I’ve tried. Living on a farm, I constantly battle fly infestations, but this trap has significantly reduced their numbers. The setup was incredibly simple—just add water, and within hours, flies started swarming inside. What I appreciate the most is that it’s insecticide-free, making it safe to use around my horses. The reusable design is also a big plus, saving me money in the long run. Highly recommend for anyone dealing with persistent fly issues!

“Perfect for Outdoor Use—No More Flies on My Patio!”
I purchased the Captivator Fly Trap after struggling with flies invading my backyard gatherings. I was skeptical at first, but after placing the trap near my patio, I was amazed at how quickly it started working. Within a few days, it had collected a shocking number of flies, dramatically reducing the annoyance during outdoor meals. The attractant is powerful, though a bit smelly, so I’d advise placing it at a reasonable distance. Overall, I’m beyond satisfied and will definitely be buying more for the summer!

“Essential for My Poultry Farm—Highly Effective!”
Managing a poultry farm means flies are a constant issue, but the Captivator Fly Trap has made a noticeable difference. I set up multiple traps around my coop and noticed a significant drop in fly activity within a week. The one-way entry system ensures flies can’t escape, making it incredibly effective. I also love that it’s reusable—just dump the contents, refill, and it’s good to go again. My only tip is to place it away from high-traffic areas since the attractant has a strong odor. If you’re in agriculture, this is a must-have!

Captivator FAQ

How does the Captivator Fly Trap actually work?

The trap uses a combination of visual cues and a powerful feeding stimulant (pheromone-based attractant) to lure flies into the jug, where they enter through a one-way top and eventually drown in the water.

Where is the best place to hang the trap for maximum effectiveness?

For the best results, you should hang the trap approximately 4 feet off the ground in a sunny, low-wind area, ensuring it is placed at least 20 to 30 feet away from your home or patio to draw flies away from your living space.

Does the attractant have a strong odor?

Yes, the attractant is designed to mimic decaying organic matter to lure flies, so it does have a pungent smell; this is why it is strictly recommended for outdoor use only.

How often do I need to empty and refill the jug?

You should clean and refill the trap once the liquid is full of dead flies or when the water level drops significantly due to evaporation, typically every 2 to 4 weeks depending on the fly population.

What types of flies will this trap catch?

The Captivator is highly effective against “filth flies,” including common house flies, cluster flies, garbage flies, and stable flies, though it is not designed to catch biting gnats or fruit flies.

Is the attractant safe to use around pets and livestock?

The attractant is generally considered non-toxic, but because of its potent odor and the bacteria present in dead flies, you should hang the trap out of reach of curious dogs or livestock to prevent accidental ingestion.

Why isn’t my trap catching any flies yet?

It usually takes 24 to 48 hours for the attractant to fully activate and reach its peak potency, and effectiveness can also be hindered if the weather is too cold or if the trap is placed in a deep-shade area.
