About 6 poppers, worthless. Do what I did, get a dozen flies for $6 on eBay.

The kit has 6 poppers, which are great for panfish and small bass. My first time out I landed about 9 bluegills.however, I would recommend doing as others have said and order new flies.

Three possibilities: IF you place a weight in the bottom during the original preparation (e.g., stainless steel washers/nuts, bolts etc - or just a suitable rock) then you can submerge the ENTIRE trap(?) in a five gallon bucket of water. You can place the entire trap in a plastic bag sealed at the top for a suitable period of time. Finally, just transport the entire trap in a sealed container to a dump area (a vacuckant lot?) and not worry about the few living flies in the trap. BTW, I generally take a bucket of water with me to the dump area for initial rinsing. You will want to wash these traps after dumps. They stink = they're effective!

For sure NOT. The ones that have multiple layers are great, I have since gotten a few re-chargeable ones and they are great. This may work for regular flies but not fruit flies.

there are supposed to be 4 pellets, one for each section. mine only came with 2 as well.. then to make things worse they grew mold and tiny flies hatched. they should just sell the wood planter by itself without the garbage soil.

That is not normal. It might be that there was to much moisture in the environment and that a fly got into the package. That food should be thrown away.

Yes they do have a fly although I do not use them, I find them too difficult to put a large package through a small hole.

I believe so. It attracts all that we have around here and some of them are large, biting flies. I assume they are horse flies. Try it and see. Just follow the instructions and get out of the way. Mine started catching flies in under an hour.

The fly covers the porch. It is not separate. It is part of the fly that covers the rest of the tent.

We had some fruit flies at first but we made a trap and keep it next to the bucket. After about a week - no more flies. Just take a container with a lid, poke a small hole in the lid, put 1 tsp of honey and 1/8 cup of cider vinegar in the container. Put the container (I use a jelly jar) close to the bucket. Or get a commercial trap - Gardens Alive sells one.

My set up came with a 5-6 wt. fly line. It is excellent quality for the price and I am still using it.

It is 64.5 (outside dimension) inches long. A two piece 10 foot fly rod fits with room to spare.

I have the same answer as the other reply. It depends how many flies you have. Sometimes they fill up fast and sometimes more slowly. Usually mine fill in 3 weeks or so. I have chickens so I get more flies.

hi -I gave this item as a gift but have not heard of any issues with flies (nor have I seen any flies when I've been at the recipients home). We are both happy with the purchase overall. Hope this helps.

Thankfully that's not what happened when I used this product. Or at least I didn't notice. Every day I lookedl at the bag, it was more full but there didn't seem to be MORE flies coming to the area. After the bag was full and discarded, I didn't have problems with flies the remainder of the season! I bought extra and didn't need them ;) Saving them for this summer if necessary!

It had 4 traps on it. And had flies in them two days later. I was shocked but it works great!! I keep it indoors on my kitchen table near window with sunlight. I live in alaska and it does excellent even up here. It now has 8 traps and is always growing more. I'm thinking of getting another carnivorous plant to add to my collection.

The ones I got were very small, but the directions say that as soon as they're established they can be fed with flies. I haven't tried to feed them myself, as it says that they can survive without them. I would say that size-wise, they're about an inch high in a4 inch pot. They have a habit of lying down flat rather than standing up.

Man, don't have an answer for you. THAT is certainly interesting. I wonder where exactly you are at in the Caribbean and what types of flies are abundant in your climate zone. Maybe the flies were "checking out" the new smell and were attracted to the Big Bag. Now, it sounds like they have moved on!
