How to make a DIY fly trap

[@glennsmith2232]

Fantastic works parade and doesn’t cost hardly anything. Tuna fish is only about $.60 a can and you can make four traps. Thank you so much.

[@franklegerski9682]

This works for any pest! We were at a wedding reception that was outdoors. The yellow jackets were everywhere! I started making these traps out of empty soda bottles and putting some punch, hard-boiled egg and water, or hamburger meat floating in water. I added a few drops of dish soap and hung them in the trees. Soon the number of yellow jackets at the receprion dropped. When we cleaned up, almost all of them were full of yellow jackets and flies!

[@drakebiscardi3160]

great job on the video--simple design and you used things most everyone has in their house--I am making some now!

[@AmaiDREAMx]

The Winters in Arizona are for Central! My house is currently infested with flies! Time to down 2 liters of soda!

[@rebeccalwood5785]

Two suggestions: 1) Add a 1/2 tsp dish soap to the bottle so the flys sink into the water 2) Cut the lid COMPLETELY OFF the can. So easy to cut your finger by leaving it on like that.

[@terebrown2892]

IMHO, a couple of drops of detergent is sufficient... All you have to do is reduce the surface tension so they sink, can't get out.

[@TheWhitde]

fish sauce, water, brown sugar, yeast and some guineapig poop worked for me :-)

[@iamsobeautifulomg]

I like the sweet music of death at the end.

[@johnr.302]

It attracted my nosy neighbor, now she's stuck inside the bottle.

Great video! Thanks, for sharing!

[@saltlifegull4091]

Awesome video, Kayla. I'm losing my mind from these flies coming into my house (no a/c) and have ducks outside. Horrible!! I've been to Tractor Supply and bought thing after thing, still flies everywhere. Can't use the computer without a fly swatter in one hand. Going to try it. Great idea and thanks for sharing. Friend from NW Florida!

[@ExecutionerDan]

I saw another video where the guy got a small bucket of water and 6 cracked eggs. After the eggs have fermented in the water for 3 weeks itll smell like a straight up holocaust which the flies love. If you use the rotten egg water mixture as bait you'll find that you trap will catch more flies.

[@benedicaatutti5715]

Thank you for this very helpful video. Here is a tasty like for you!

Flies are hovering around our garbage cans. Tuna for bait is working great Immediately-no waiting three days

[@muddyfunker3014]

Try whisking up a couple of eggs and pouring in. That works very well as a bait too. Obviously topped up with water.

[@Candy-ji1sr]

It works like a dream. I use one egg and water.

[@Ochi2000]

[@777sweett777]

Holy cow! All those flies in less than a week? 😱💀 And they are just piling on top of each other? 🤢🤮 That is the most flies in a trap I've ever seen! 😧 Guess it really truly works! 😊 Good for you! 👍

[@susboo5635]

Why put 🤡✅ so many 🥶😳 emojis 😘😝 bro 😱🤨🤯👈?

[@adamwarlock3530]

For in-doors, all I do is get a small bowl. Put 1/2 cup water in it. Then put 1-2 ounces of apple cider vinegar and 1 teaspoon of sugar in it. Lastly, 1-2 drops of dish washing liquid. I then put the small bowl under a light in the kitchen. I catch each and every fly 100% of the time within 20 minutes. I use an old cottage cheese container with a lid. Once I catch the fly/flies, I fish them out, put the lid on the container and put it under my kitchen sink for later use. Why waste the ingredients

[@callyscraftycorner2463]

Do you put on the lid with a hole in it or do you leave it open to catch the flies

[@adamwarlock3530]

@@callyscraftycorner2463 Actually, I strain out the bugs with an old reusable coffee filter now, then put the solution in a jar with a lid on it so it doesnt evaporate. I then pull the solution out the next time I need it.

[@tecnolover2642]

I used white vinegar and its not working. Maybe i should have used apple cider vinegar??

[@dragonflyer59]

thank you for the tutorial... now we might be able to stop swatting...

[@britreid5893]

I find it hard to waste my tuna on a fly

[@Samantha06-l4m]

😂😂

[@jl123ist]

Just save the juice when you make tuna salad. you don't have to put the fish in the fly trap, just the juice would be fine and maybe add a raw egg as well.

[@destinythomas2366]

😅🤣🤣 ikr but you can surely sacrifice one can for a nice peace chill moment with not one fly smacking you in the face at least the juice lol lol

[@kemsat-n6h]

Crack a couple eggs, add some water and stir, then throw it in a trap, like if you’ve bought one before or make one like they do. Put it outside, and it’ll work better as the eggs spoil (🤮).

[@kemsat-n6h]

@@jl123ist yeah honestly any leftovers would work, stuff that gets nastier when it spoils is better

[@sc2dave1]

Maybe put in a pinch of dirt for the germs, microwave it til it's nice and warm to speed up the rotting process, leave out in sun. Then serve to chickens or use flies as fertilizer!

[@roseagius3287]

In summer we are in need of these traps

[@rchang3292]

Do you recommend hanging it in a shady or sunny spot? Or high versus low spot?

[@kaylastocum9439]

R Chang we did a half sunny half shady spot. Try a couple diff spots and then if you don't catch any then you can move em around :)

[@blusnuby2]

Here in the Pacific Northwest, flies definitely prefer SUN !

[@thebigcountry8518]

A nicely prepared dog turd is a delicacy, because finding the perfect turd is not easy..It has to fit in the hole ! It's time consuming walking the yard using a ruler measuring each turd, and that's why it's only served only on Saturdays during fly karaoke night and Sundays after Church ...!

So now what do you have for inside the house ?

[@JordanAaliyahBrown]

Hey guys want a tip I use some thing my grandma bought to kill flies it looks like tennis racket and when my mom killed the fly it got Electrocuted and died and if you want to know how to use it 1 there a button warning dont touch the tennis racket when u press a button on the thing that looks like tennis racket 2 find the fly 😂 3 press the button and keep pressing it when ur going to smash it because so they won’t fly and if u dont press the button it won’t be so easy to kill for you if ur a child i dont think u should use it I’m 12 and my mom lets me kill flies with the thing that looks like tennis racket when I ain’t scared . There u go and if u cant find the looking like tennis racket looking fly trap I’m sorry but you can try to find videos that help👌.

[@eagleman13]

What are you on about girl?

[@horcruxx]

But all the flies are right next to my door :( if i hang the trap away from there, will they still come?

[@markmcconnell8705]

Okay. I've made 4 of these bottle traps and mixed molasses, scallops, shrimp, raw eggs, cooked eggs, (we have chickens) sugar, dish soap, can't forget that, some chicken patties, the liquid absorber thing on the bottom of packaged meats, uhm...veggie scraps. These are just what I remember. They are placed around outside in sun light. It has been a week and I have caught maybe a dozen. What else should I try without spending a lot $$$? Yeah! I have lots of tuna. Thanks for reminding me...uhm...should I use the oil or water packed? 🙄

[@stykytte]

water packed tuna, the oil prevents the bacteria that produce the bad smells from being able to access oxygen and prevents evaporation of water molecules that carry the smell - it still works but not quite as well. Cheapest thing you can put in one of these traps is urine or feces, best mix I've ever seen was Water, Eggs, Vinegar and stale Urine - that's what the local university students are using to great effect, I replaced the urine with manky cat food left in the bowls after feeding time and it worked about as well, funnily enough fresh cat food doesn't have the same effect, needs to be licked a bit first to get all the nasty bacteria from the cats mouths on it first.

[@elzierr1743]

Stupid question but how did they go inside Edit: nvm i didn't start the video

[@bonjovirocks24]

Will these fly traps reduce the fly population in the neighborhood?

[@averymcdaniel423]

What about around a dog kennel?

[@frilink]

Protip: use a cigarette to make those holes, it's easier......... Another Protip: Don't throw the contents away, use it as fertilizer

[@jand8303]

Protip: her way works fine! And if she doesn't smoke why would she have a cigarette? Or your protip wants her to buy a pack? And then it's going to cost more time and money to make the trap. Protip: your tips are useless, now go clean your room clown!

Just get a Venus fly trap and look after it it's so much better and fun and doesent stink

[@ExecutionerDan]

Venus fly traps are incredibly hard to take care of. Everytime I've bought them they've inevitably died no matter how much research I did to take care of it. I'd rather just take the 2 liter bottle from this video filled with some water and raw eggs. It smells like a damn concentration camp but has left my house fly free for years along as I actually leave a fresh trap outside.

[@jjudijo]

Duct tape the opening closed before throwing away. The stench of death will penetrate into the garbage bin. 🤢🤢🤢

[@donnarichey144]

Might attract other wild animals we have bear getting into things.

[@LynneB-gd8yv]

That's just what I was think. We don't have bears but we have possums, skunks, and other nuisance animals that Invade our yard. We also have 2 dogs & a 6' fence. Our town seems to be plagued with them.

[@mrstexxxas9988]

Racoons are definitely a pest for things like this, where i live we have lots of Racoons , badgers , chipmunks , beavers , squirrels , skunks and coyotes unfortunately

[@lemonlover6559]

I know you are using tuna for esthetic purposes , but you should really use something out of the trash or dog poop as a bait, also you don't need to cut a square , just cut a big hole about the size of a quarter, no artistry involved.

[@Name-js5uq]

What is the point of marking the bottle first? Can't you just do it without marking it at all? you simply just cut a hole anywhere you want in the top of the bottle, it's still going to work the same, marking the bottle doesn't need to be done. It's pretty obvious the Flies don't care where the holes are so what is the point of actually marking the bottle first?
