Flying Insect Indoor Trap, UV Light Plug-In, 1 Device + 1 Cartridge

Finally a some help against carpet beetles! I used to thrift alot and did not always wash my purchases immediately. As a consequence, I've been fighting a long losing battle against carpet beetles for years. They're notoriously hard to get rid of similar to bed bugs other than burning all your stuff. Zevo commercials have been airing non stop, and I was happy to find this STEM brand version for alot less with their manufacturer coupon at multiple retailers. I have these set up in multiple rooms and I'm torn whether I'm more excited or disgusted by how many of these little pests I found stuck even from day one. Pictured is after 2 weeks and I guess carpet beetles are like roaches - if you see 1 there's hundreds more you don't see. Only in the spring/summer I would find maybe 1 bug every couple weeks by a window or a light, but had no idea this many were chilling and having orgies in my house. I know this won't stop the problem completely, but it seems to be doing a great job so far. I guess results will really be apparent next spring if numbers are less. Weird note, they seem to prefer the side against the wall vs the side that the light is on. FYI Amazon has several generic refill options for around $1/pc.

Great for catching mosquitoes,flies etc.

Kept getting buzzed by fruit flies while doing the dishes. Set out a homemade soap and vinegar trap, caught a half-dozen, but they kept coming. Ended up buying this product and a "professional" vinegar trap, figuring I'd do a side-by-side comparison. The light trap wasn't quite as effective as vinegar, but it did catch a couple of dozen flies in six hours (I had no idea there were THAT many) without smelling up the house, and the blue night light is a nice aesthetic addition to the kitchen as long as you don't to closely at it and see all the dead bugs. Most importantly, however, between the two products, I was fly free by the next morning.

I had a lot of fruit flies in my house that were growing on a plant somebody gave me, but even after getting rid of the plant I could not get rid of the flies. After a couple of days of having this trap on, all the flies were gone and I was impressed. The blue insert was pretty full and nasty but it was a relieve having it since the flies were driving me crazy. Now I keep this just in case I get undesirable insects in my house again.

I bought the STEM Flying Insect Trap Indoor about three weeks ago mainly for the annoying little gnats and fruit flies that show up in my kitchen every summer. It arrived quickly, looks pretty sleek and modern on the countertop (doesn’t scream “bug killer”), and was dead simple to set up—just plug in and flip the switch. The UV light definitely pulls in the tiny stuff. I’ve emptied the tray a few times and each time there were 15–25 gnats and fruit flies stuck to the glue pad. That part feels satisfying. It runs super quiet too, so I can leave it on 24/7 without it driving me crazy. Here’s the “but”… it’s honestly mediocre at everything else. Houseflies and bigger flying pests mostly ignore it. Mosquitoes? Zero interest. The trap only seems to cover about a 6–8 foot radius, so in anything bigger than a small kitchen you’d need two or three. The sticky pads fill up fast if you actually have a decent bug problem, and the replacement packs are surprisingly pricey for what they are. After the first 10 days the catch rate dropped noticeably even with fresh pads. Bottom line: if you’ve got a mild fruit-fly situation and just want something low-effort and decent-looking, this will do the job and you’ll probably be satisfied. If you’re battling a real infestation or want something that handles mosquitoes and bigger flies, keep shopping. It works… just not great. Three stars feels fair.

These worked great! I got them for these little gnats that were popping up and they did a great job of getting rid of them. The little sticky plastic caught so many bugs and they weren’t able to fly away. It was great. I used it in my room near my plants. I was worried it would be too bright, but it wasn’t. Overall this was a great buy and I’d recommend it to anyone dealing with pesky gnats. I’d say you’d be surprised how many little gnats are actually flying around

Good buy

4 stars because of price and that the package says something like 1 "refill" but it's literally just telling you that it has the one sticky trap in it that it comes with not that it has the sticky trap plus an additional. However, these suckers do work really well! I've even had a few spiders crawl themselves up on there. I like the product so well I went ahead and purchased a second one (one is from Amazon one is from Walmart) both are the "nightlight style" wall plugs plus of course replacement sticky pads inserts. This is a product I will probably continue to buy seeing as it works so well and bonus points it doesn't look bad either and easy to change
