How It Works

This trap uses a food-based lure and color proven attractive to fruit flies. Simply add the liquid attractant to the trap and it starts catching fruit flies within minutes. Each trap comes with a 30-day supply of attractant and is reusable with RESCUE! Fruit Fly Trap Attractant Refills. With more holes and a higher concentration of attractant, our exclusive design is proven to catch adult fruit flies eight times better than competitive traps.

Pet Safety

Our Fruit Fly Traps use a food based lure that is safe around pets, kids, and food. The Fruit Fly Trap can be placed indoors on a counter, table, windowsill or other stable surfaces near a fruit fly problem. Once caught, fruit flies cannot fly out the funnel-shaped holes and drown in the non-toxic liquid attractant.

What It Catches

Our trap catches fruit flies that congregate and breed near fruit, vegetables and food scraps.

Where To Place It

The RESCUE! Fruit Fly Trap can be placed indoors on a counter, table, windowsill or other stable surface near the fruit fly problem. Fruit flies can breed on fruits and vegetables, and in pantries, kitchen trash, sinks, garbage disposals and compost bins - wherever fruits, vegetables and food scraps are present. All of these are good locations for the RESCUE! Fruit Fly Trap .

This trap can be used whenever fruit flies are a nuisance indoors.

RESCUE! Fruit Fly Traps are designed to catch indoor fruit flies (those that breed near fruit, vegetables and food scraps) using a food-based lure and special no-tip trap design. These traps won't catch fungus gnats or drain flies—for those, you'll want to try our Indoor Fly TrapStik or FlyPad.
The included food-based liquid attractant draws fruit flies to the trap. The fruit flies enter through funnel-shaped holes, get trapped inside the liquid and drown—the durable trap is reusable and refills can be purchased separately.
Place the trap indoors on a stable surface near where you see fruit flies — for example by fruit bowls, trash/compost bins, kitchen sink areas or in food-storage rooms. The trap's no-tip design reduces the risk of accidental spills.
The lure and design are optimized for fast action, and in most cases, you'll see fruit flies caught in less than 24 hours.
RESCUE! Fruit Fly Traps use a food-based lure that can be used around food and in food storage areas. We recommend placing the traps out of reach of young children or pets.
The trap includes a 30-day supply of attractant and can be reused by rinsing and refilling the trap once the liquid evaporates. When performance drops or the trap is full of flies, it’s time to empty and refresh with a new attractant tube.
This model is designed for indoor use (kitchens, counters, windowsills) where fruit flies breed near food or trash — outdoor use is not recommended.
Seeing some remaining flies is normal — it may take time for the trap to divert flies from breeding areas, and if there are alternate breeding sites (e.g., compost, overripe fruit) they need to be addressed too.
In addition to using the trap: remove or manage breeding sources (discard overripe produce, clean out drains, cover trash, store food in sealed containers) and maintain good hygiene in the kitchen and food-storage areas.
Once the trap is full of flies or its attractant has lost effectiveness, empty and rinse the trap, refill with new attractant if reusing, or store the empty trap for future use. It's a good idea to allow the trap to dry fully before long-term storage.
