Piranha Plant Fruit Fly Trap

Flies enter through the mouth, travel down the hidden stem passageway, and get trapped in the unscrewing reservoir base below.

Effective Bait Recipes

To get your trap up and running, unscrew the bottom green tube and add one of these simple DIY mixtures:

• Option 1: Apple Cider Vinegar with a couple of drops of dish soap.
• Option 2: Small pieces of fruit in water with a couple of drops of dish soap.

(The dish soap breaks the surface tension of the liquid, ensuring the flies can't escape once they drop in!)

🛠️ Print & Assembly Instructions

• AMS / Multi-Color Info: The head is the only piece that requires an AMS to achieve the classic red-and-white look. If you don't own an AMS, don't sweat it—you can easily print the head in a solid color and hand-paint the white spots afterward!
• Assembly: Once your parts are printed, the permanent structural pieces are easily attached together using super glue.
• Easy Cleaning: The green warp pipe base easily unscrews from the assembly, making it incredibly simple to dump, rinse, and refill whenever needed.

🍃 Pro-Tip: Perfect Organic Leaves

The leaves are designed to print completely flat to give you the cleanest possible layers and avoid messy supports.

To get that authentic, organic droop:

1. Print the leaves flat.
2. Carefully apply heat (using a heat gun, hair dryer, or dipping them briefly in hot water) until the plastic becomes soft and pliable.
3. Shape them to your liking! My personal trick: I laid the softened leaf over the back curve of a standard kitchen spoon to get that perfect, natural bend before the plastic cooled.
