desertcart.com : The Original Katchy Indoor Insect Trap - Fan Powered with UV Light - Fruit Fly Traps for Indoors - for Fruit Flies, Gnats, Mosquitoes, Moths (Black) : Patio, Lawn & Garden

Review: Changed from 1 star to 5! It works VERY well!! - The item arrived broken :( I am SUPREMELY disappointed because I was so excited at the thought of having an effective method to combat my nemesis that is the mischievously thriving fruit fly colony which plagues me, and this item arrived this morning broken. :( The blades of the fan internally are not connected and are banging about inside. Though I don't normally pay full price for things unless necessary (I either wait for a good sale or use applicable coupons/promo codes), I took the plunge on this purchase due to my need for a competent and efficient resolve combined with it's GLOWING reviews! First, I had to wait 9 days to receive the item, which I wasn't happy about, but not upset either. I have literally been checking tracking daily and looking forward to it's arrival. Then it arrives *HAPPY DAY*. I opened the package, removed the unit (felt/heard something odd but didn't think too much of it at that moment), reviewed the directions, plugged it in and although the light came on, the fan did not. I thought maybe I need to press a particular button or what-have-you, so I re-read the directions. Nope, it should be automatic. So I then began inspecting the unit and realized the fan blades were not connected. I then even looked for a way to open the unit without busting it so that I can fix it myself (I'm incredibly handy and that's how much I wanted this to work!). No go. I could probably open it up, but then it wouldn't be returnable. Ok, so THEN I go to the item link on desertcart and as of earlier today, it said "This item is currently unavailable" followed by something to the effect of 'and we don't know if or when it will become available'. I attempted to contact the seller to no avail. My only viable option was and is to return it. I don't want to return it for a refund or leave a bad review. Rather, I want the working unit I paid and patiently waited for. Errrrr. I decided to go about my day knowing I'd come back to this later and here I am. ... I pull the item up this evening, it is in fact available again, but instead of the $39.79 price I paid 9 days ago, it is right now (6/15/2018) listed at $54.49. Whaaaa?? So I am leaving this review in hopes that the seller will contact me and make good on my purchase, at which point I would update my review to reflect the working conditions of this seemingly enigmatic device. In summary, this 1 star review encompasses only that the item arrived broken and therefore did not operate as intended. A working unit may very well be worthy of all it's positive reviews. And maaaaybe even the new $54.49 price. I hope I am a unique case. I also hope this review was of help to you. Update 6/17/18: The seller contacted me today apologizing for my inconvenience and explaining that desertcart is responsible for the damage done during the shipping of this product. I responded immediately that I appreciate the response and although I completely understand that desertcart assumes the shipping responsibility, I am also concerned that I cannot repurchase a working unit at the price I paid 2 weeks ago. I inquired how this can be rectified, stating that I fully intend to update my review according to their level of service and the actual benefits of a working unit. And now I await their response. Honestly, if I have to repurchase at the higher price, I won't and I'll leave my review star at 1. It's not the price as much as the principle. Products can be damaged in shipping, that's understandable. But the seller is also responsible for commitment. So I'm really hoping they come through with a reasonable resolve that honors the price I paid for a working unit. I'll keep you posted. Update 7/1/18: The seller not only replaced my originally bought unit, but included extras as well. They have been extremely diligent in correspondence and I can honestly say that I am not only satisfied, but impressed. With that said, I would not have altered my review to 5 stars for customer service alone. ...these units works amazingly! The home I live in was built in 1924 and does not sport insulation the way a new home would. So pests are/can be/were a problem. The units do in fact attract flying things very well! The sticky pad of results had 2 bugs I didn't know I had and don't recognize. I am extremely happy with my purchase! And may very well buy more. The unit itself is aesthetically pleasing and is relatively quiet. Night is the best time for results since that's when it's darkest and the bugs can 'see' the light. The blue light transitions in brightness, which is even more effective in attracting it's prey. I'm changing my review from a 1 star to a 5 star. I saw other reviews stating it was a flimsy design. I do get what they're saying, but how thick must this unit be to rectify that?? It works as intended and looks good doing it. The bottom is easy to open to check and/or replace the sticky pad. There are only 2 buttons so it's super easy to operate. And it doesn't look like a bug catcher at all. No one would know. So I feel it's 'flimsiness' (is that a word?) is of no concern. As long as it performs, who cares how heavy or thick it is? This is 5 stars from someone who had to work for it. I hope this review helped you! Happy bug hunting :)
Review: THE ULTIMATE FRUIT FLY TRAP - So, I had high hopes for this product. However, the sticky pads weren't effective against fruit flies, so it was a complete failure on the first day. On the second day, I decided to try a different approach. I took a small Tupperware lid, added some apple cider vinegar, and a drop of Dawn dish soap. BOOM! So many fruit flies disappeared. (I also lightly wrapped the mesh area at the bottom with a dish towel to ensure that the flies stayed trapped.) I believe I've created the most effective trap for fruit flies in the world!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: fan seems to be disconnected.  should this be one solid piece or is it broken?**
A: Thank you for telling us about this!

If the fan is disconnected, then you have received a broken unit. We recently had a small manufacturing error and defective units were accidentally sent to Amazon. 

Please contact us on Amazon and we will send you a new trap right away!

We apologise for the inconvenience this has caused and I hope to make it up to you! :)

Sincerely,
Helena
KATCHY Support Manager

**Q: Where do I find replacement glue pads?**
A: I used one of the replacement glue pads as a template on basic yellow sticky traps. Two discs can be cut from one sheet, and has the advantage of being double sided. Seemed to work just as well. MUCH less expensive and more readily available than the Katchy glue boards.

Please understand that my problem was with fungus gnats. If you problem is with some other type of insect, your milage may vary.

**Q: Hi, this product came with glue boards? or I need to buy it separately**
A: Thank you for the question! :)

All the KATCHY insect traps come with 4 glue boards already included in the package. Should you run out of them after some use, we sell replacements on Amazon here:

Sincerely,
Sandra
KATCHY Support Manager

**Q: How does this product work with no seeums?**
A: Works awesome for no seeums believe me you won’t regret buying one. I love mine. As a matter of fact I haven’t had one of them fly by my ear since my purchase. Had it about a year and a half.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fruit flies be gone! Fast! Reliably!
*by J***N on February 18, 2026*

My only negative comment is the noise produced by the fan motor. But this works so well in baiting and trapping the flies without smells, chemicals, or complicated set ups. I can see why these are used in restaurants. Super easy set up: you place a sticky-pad inside, plug it in and turn on the fan. In seconds you'll hear your first sky raisin go 'click'. I have noticed that this works even better when using the Terro Fruit Fly traps that look like small apples. Place those farther out from wherever you place this. Together, they are incredibly effective. Be sure to purchase the correct size refills for whichever unit you buy. The unit comes with four sticky pads, as I recall, but have extras on hand. Sometimes the ex-flies bounce off of the fans, so I would not place this where food is being prepared. That won't be pepper sprinkled all over!!! Instead, place it in the center of a large cookie sheet or piece of cardboard to catch the ex-flies that didn't quite make the right angle to get sucked in.
