Super effective fruit fly trap for glass

🦟 Description: Ultimate Funnel Fruit Fly Trap

This innovative funnel trap was designed to combat annoying fruit flies (Drosophila melanogaster), also known as vinegar flies, with maximum effectiveness. The design utilizes the proven funnel principle to attract insects and block their escape

The attachment fits perfectly on most jam or canning jars with a 77 mm opening, transforming them into a hygienic and reusable trap. The radial slots at the base of the funnel improve the scent diffusion area of the bait, attracting flies even faster

Advantages of this design:

• Highest Effectiveness: The narrow hole at the end of the funnel, approximately 5 mm, prevents flies from easily escaping
• Reusable: Easy cleaning and immediate use with new bait
• Cost-effective: Uses standard jars as containers
• Stylish: The sleek design blends discreetly into any kitchen

🛠️ Instructions for Use (Bait Mixture)

1. Fill the container: Add approximately 2 cm of bait into the jar
2. Bait Recipe (very effective):
   • Apple cider vinegar (or diluted vinegar essence)
   • Fruit juice (e.g. apple juice or leftover wine)
   • Drops of dish soap (very important! Breaks the surface tension so flies drown and cannot land on the liquid)
3. Place the attachment: Screw the printed funnel attachment onto the jar
4. Placement: Position the trap directly next to the fruit bowl, organic waste, or other infested areas
5. Maintenance: Change the bait mixture every 2-3 days, as the scent's effectiveness diminishes
