ABSTRACT:
A trap for catching flies having a cylindrical clear plastic outer shell with a removable lid and an opening in the bottom is disclosed.
A funnel-shaped entryway within the cylindrical outer shell. The space between the funnel-shaped entry and the outer shell is filled with bait for attracting flies. A piece of string is glued or otherwise affixed to the inside of the small end of the funnel and dangles below the trap to form a "landing platform" for the flies to alight and crawl into the baited chamber where they become trapped and die.
The lid can be removed for easy cleaning and refilling with bait.
Attachment means are provided at the upper end of the trap where a piece of wire or string can be attached to hang the trap.
The bait includes honey, milk, and diced apple.
