Indoor Reusable Fruit Fly Trap – NZ-Made & Chemical-Free

Stop flies fast with this reusable NZ-made fly trap. Uses everyday household bait, no chemicals, no mess. Designed to Work with Simple Household Bait

Fruit flies are naturally drawn to fermentation. That means you don’t need special chemicals or expensive attractants. Everyday household liquids like red wine, apple cider vinegar, and other fermented products are highly effective at attracting fruit flies into traps.

Our Reusable Fruit Fly Trap is designed to work perfectly with these simple, proven bait solutions—giving you a clean, effective, and reusable system for eliminating fruit flies from kitchens, cafés, and commercial environments.

Unlike temporary DIY solutions, this trap is a purpose-built, standalone unit that can be emptied, cleaned, and reused indefinitely. Why Household Bait Works So Well

Fruit flies are attracted to the scent of fermentation, which mimics overripe fruit. Apple cider vinegar, red wine, and fermented sugar liquids produce the exact scent profile fruit flies seek when feeding and breeding.

Adding a small drop of dishwashing liquid improves effectiveness by breaking the liquid’s surface tension. This prevents fruit flies from escaping once they land, ensuring they remain trapped.

This combination creates a highly effective, natural trapping solution using items already found in most homes. Recommended Household Bait Options

You can use any of the following simple bait solutions: Most Effective Option (Recommended)

• Apple cider vinegar
• 1–2 drops of dishwashing liquid

This is widely recognised as one of the most reliable and effective fruit fly attractants. Highly Effective Alternative

Red Wine or Red Wine Vinegar
Fruit flies are strongly attracted to the fermented sugars in red wine and wine vinegar, making this an excellent bait option.

Overripe Fruit Vinegar
Small pieces of overripe fruit combined with vinegar increase attraction.

Fermented Sugar Mix
• Water
• Sugar
• Small amount of vinegar
• Drop of dishwashing liquid

This mimics natural fermentation and is highly attractive. Why Dishwashing Liquid Improves Results

Dishwashing liquid plays a crucial role. It breaks the liquid’s surface tension, preventing flies from landing safely. Instead, they sink and remain trapped, significantly improving capture rates.

Only a small drop is required. Designed for Long-Term Reuse

This trap is not disposable. It’s designed to be reused again and again.

Simply:

Add household bait

Place trap near fruit fly activity

Empty when needed

Rinse and reuse

Refill with fresh bait

This provides a permanent solution rather than a temporary fix. Everything You Need to Get Started
