Useless product

These are the best ant traps that I have EVER used. If you use them properly and read the directions place them in a hidden area and give it a few days… The ants are attracted to the solution inside And that's it. You will be surprised how well these work. I will continue to order them.

I'm in a house that's over 50 years old, very clean but with a small moisture issue in the basement that I just bought a pump dehumidifier for. Had a manual-dump dehumidifier for years before but it doesn't seem to remove enough moisture. I reference this as this is the only reason why I can see that I'd have an issue with spiders down there; it's not major, but there's enough (I can find about one a day during Spring) that it's a problem.So I put a half dozen of these in the spots I've seen them. They have caught some huge ones. Where these things are coming from is SO puzzling, as there are minimal ways to enter from the outside and most everything is off the floors on rollers/etc., mostly organized and as clean as a basement can be. In other words, few places for them to hide.Once I see something trapped on one of these things I use a paper towel to grab the sticky part and squash the catch as quickly as possible; I really don't like killing things in general, and I'm hoping that the spiders/silverfish/etc that get stuck on these die as quickly as possible, I don't want them struggling......Well...I saw a wolf spider caught on one one day. I had a horrible back issue and couldn't bend under the sink area to get to it immediately...The next day I could...BUT...THE WOLF SPIDER WAS GONE FROM THE TRAP.A medium sized one this time.I was absolutely shocked.These strips are kinda like those wax hair-removal strips. In fact, I assumed that's basically what they are, re-purposed.So, VERY sticky.I could NOT believe the spider was gone.I am the only one in the house. There is no other explanation except that it escaped the sticky part.I am continuing to use the strips with success, and they do seem to have reduced the problem by a solid 90% or so. Ended up catching at least a dozen wolf spiders, some very large (over a couple inches including their legs in a few instances...really horrifying things, even tho I understand they're beneficial in many ways. I can't tolerate them in my home).SO: it's a worthwhile product, but I'm checking on the strips frequently now and will make sure the catches are killed asap, also because apparently they can actually escape, which leads me to believe they're not dying quickly, which I'd much rather be the case.I'd ask the manufacturer if perhaps there's a way to help ensure they're killed when they get stuck, perhaps a natural food-based killer (like boric acid for ants, roaches, etc.) of some sort. Altho I'd rather not use anything toxic, I think in a case like this where it's so contained, it might make a good option for many of us to help ensure they don't escape, that they die quickly, and therefore completely effective.

Two Month Update:It has now been nearly two months and I’ve placed these all over my home including the garage. Only one trap caught something and it was a single ant. All other traps are clean except for a few dust bunnies. I was very shocked that even the garage placed one didn’t catch anything whatsoever. I tried placing them in various places where they’d have the best chase of success but they apparently don’t work for me. And I do occasionally see a small spider or something around so it’s not like there’s nothing to catch. My home is very clean but the garage is detached and full of webs etc so I was highly shocked that that one caught nothing as well. Oh well maybe others will have better luck.Original Review:Well I’ve had them installed for a few days now and they’ve caught nothing. I placed 3 of these traps in different places and not a single thing has been trapped. I had a fly fly directly past it several times and never seemed interested. I have one in the garage where a sizable spider common crawls past my cameras and now that I put a trap there he apparently is ignoring his/her favorite route across my bicycle. The spider probably is the size of a quarter when including his legs. But while he has set off my motion cameras on several occasions walking across the bicycle hung just below my camera, now I haven’t gotten a single motion alert. So I guess it’s working by keeping it away but it’s probably just going a different way. Also that stupid fly has been driving crazy for days and these traps don’t seem to attract them. Maybe they only work with swarms of insects that just happen to run into them. I had hope they’d be attracted but no such luck. My home is very clean but this fly entered while I had a window open and now he annoys me at night by buzzing by me. I’ve tried to hit him with newspapers and towels but it’s the Top Gun of flies. And that spider in my garage is never visible when I go out there looking for him.

Just a few years ago, for the 1st time, we were infested with crickets in our basement. I think they get into the garage, too, but I don't care about that. This happens now, every year, as Winter approaches & lasts until Spring. I think they’re called Camel Crickets. Don’t know where they come from but they do not chirp, like outside, summer crickets do. I now put these traps in various spots in my basement and, usually, one on the steps leading to our main floor in case any try to come upstairs. These traps have an adhesive that has something in it that draws the crickets to it. They go in, never to come out again, trapped by the strong adhesive. I was shocked at the large amount of crickets each trap caught. Had no idea there were so many. Before buying these traps, I became aware of the crickets when I went into the basement and 2 jumped onto my thigh. They don’t bite, but still. Yuck. only 4 stars for easy to use because, you have to be careful when folding them for use, according to the instructions, because the adhesive is REALLY strong and you don’t want to accidentally touch it, as I have done, while setting it up for use. But, lesson learned & now I’ve gotten better at it. Most importantly, they do the job. Again, I am astounded each year when I check the ones I’ve put down, to see if they need replacements, at the amount of crickets these traps have trapped. I already have 2 packs of Terro traps aside, ready for Winter, and the crickets it brings, when it comes. Great product. Does its job. Less expensive than other brands but, just as good.
