HOT SHOTNo-Pest Strip, Pack of 1

For anyone is the hospitality industry, and restaurants, I just want to state, this is the only product I have found to remove fruit flies and keep them away. I have done it all, from bleach or dove down the drains, the "traps", and even "bombing" an area in the past. Everything else just kills the existing pests, and this removes them from the breading zones and keeps them away. Be aware, you are going to make them mad the first few days and have a worse issue, but then gone! It states they are good for 120 days, but I replace every 90 and never have an issue. Cheaper and more affective than any pest control company and their temporary solutions. Just put in any areas that have water, so your dish, beer drains, soda machine and 3 compartment sinks. As this is considered a chemical, make sure it is away from food as the health department will ask you to remove these like any other chemical.

I buy these all the time. Works great. I’ve use in bath, kitchen, and outdoor porches. Lasts long and does the job.

I've been battling fruit flies all summer and here into fall, It was never a huge infestation, just a few here and there, mostly in the Kitchen, but a few in the bathroom and occasionally buzzing in my face in the den. At first I just thought, well this is just summer in Michigan, bugs are a part of life, but eventually I got to my boiling point of having them buzz by my face one too many times so I decided to do something about it.I tried the home remedies first, all this praise over simple apple cider vinegar, and dish soap, I made several home made traps from recommendations I saw on some Youtube Videos, all swearing by the Apple Cider Vinegar, I put these out around where I saw the flies most frequently, mostly in the kitchen around the sink, and I never caught a single fruit fly, but my whole house stunk of Apple Cider Vinegar.I saw this low down in the recommendations here on Amazon, and thought, what's the worst that could happen, sure it says not to use in your house, but I'm a grown man, with no children or pets to worry about, so I thought worst case, I may get a little sick from it, but if I noticed any ill effects, I could just toss it and be out $7, I just ordered the one, because I had my skepticism and didn't want to waste any more money, if this too was a dud, and if it worked somewhat, and wasn't killing me, I could just order a few more, as it only took a day to get to my house.So on the day it arrived, I took it out of it's package and hung it over the sink. It didn't smell bad, not much of a smell at all really, unless you get right up to it and sniff it (probably not a good idea, it is poison after all, so I'm not recommending you do that). I checked on it two hours later, and the fruit flies were still hanging out around the sink, so I thought, well this doesn't work either.Gave it another two hours though, and checked again, and not a fruit fly one anywhere in sight. Not only that, I haven't seen a single one of those little buggers since anywhere in the house. They're just gone, Vanished. I imagine the died off somewhere, but they're so small, that unless they're moving, they're hard to spot, I'd imagine that many a little fruit fly carcass will have been vacuumed up, or else went back down the drain to die.I've left it hung up these last few days, just in case, but haven't noticed any ill effect to my health, no lingering odor, and no ill effect to any food I've prepared in the area. I'll probably take it down in a few more days just to be safe and move it out to the garage to kill off some bugs out there as it's supposed to last up to 40 days, so maybe I'll be able to get rid of any spiders or insects that have decided to winter in there out of this thing as well, which is a bonus.As far as the "Don't use it in your House" warnings, I'm convinced now that it's just some legal safety net for the company rather than an actual real danger. Long term exposure, who knows, maybe if you kept it up in an area you frequent for the full 40 days, yeah, it could start to affect you, but for a day or to to let it knock out the problem, you'll probably be fine.I can tell you one thing for sure though, I'll be buying a few more of these once spring comes back around to place out in my garage and on my back porch where I always have problems with flies and spiders so I can see how this thing really handles, and next time I get any fruit flies, this will be my first step in eliminating them rather than the last thing I try. Simply enough, IT WORKS!

Okay... so I read the other reviews in regards to not using this in "living" areas... I read several of them... but you know what.. I was desparate, and desperate times called for desperate measures...I had already had a mild fruit fly problem in my small apartment (about 750 square feet).. and like a bubblehead... I left one morning in a hurry after making a smoothie and neglected to clean up.. I managed to leave a few strawberries on the counter right next to an unfinished glass of wine.. I then left and didn't return for about three days..I came home to the Fruit-FlyAgeddon.. Fruit-Apocolypse... It was HORRIBLE. I spent the entire weekend, swatting flies away from my face, my laptop screen, my television screen.. I even tried vacuuming them from the various areas they would land.. I spent hours over the course of a weekend waving my vacuum hose around in my living room like some cracked out Ninja with a lame sword trying in vain to suck up the little mutants as they flit around my apartment.And then it happened. I went to open my bedroom window; and there it was.The Fruit Fly Village. In my bedroom window.. hundreds of them... milling about.Shopping, playing, singing, dining, mocking me.It was 20 degrees outside and I had to sleep with a fan blowing towards me to keep the little mutants from landing on me while I tried in vain to sleep beneath Fruit Fly Village.. I literally cried myself to sleep. Because I realized.. those little freaks had been in my apartment.. all along. Just waiting for me to mess up.. and I did..I fought them over the long Thanksgiving Weekend.. and first tried the vinegar/dishsoap thing.. I freaked out when I saw all the bodies floating.. but the vinegar just seemed to draw them out.. it wasn't alleviating the problem.. It was merely punctuating the severe issue that I had..Then, after returning home one evening It was then that I cracked. I could not cook in my kitchen as they would land everywhere.. I couldn't even hang out in my living room.. While trying to watch the Mindy Project I spent the entire show swatting them away from my face... And I definitely couldn't enjoy a glass of beloved wine.. I couldn't even put my makeup on in my bathroom without one of the mutants landing on my foundation on my face, I even swallowed a couple of them during a workout... Yes.. I couldn't even enjoy my Tae-Bo... They had taken over..I'd had it...I hopped online and immediately ordered the No-Pest Strip... Prime Membership.. spent the extra $3.99 to get it the next day..I thought to myself... I will risk the adult onset ADD..This must end... I want my life back.I hung it up... and after a few hours.. noticed that nothing was flying around my head as I watched television.. but I think it was all in my mind.. I decided to go to bed.. place it in my tiny kitchen.. and see what would happen. I closed myself up in my bedroom to try to minimize the ADD fumes..The next morning.. I noticed not much.. I dressed for work and left. Upon arriving home.. I began to notice.. the tiny carcasses on my kitchen counter.. I cleaned them all.. In my bathroom, I noticed a few carcasses in my tub. OMG.. could it be working? There was a faint smell.. not intrusive.. but just enough to remind me that the ADD stick was working.. Then, the big test.. I sat on my sofa to watch television.. I was only accosted by one lone fruit fly..I was winning..And now.. the battle is almost won. It has eliminated 90% of the mutants.. I made the mistake of forgetting to plug in the drains in the kitchen and just went and found quite a few plotting their attack.. I attacked them with a bottle of Clorox and some very hot water.. I am strong now Mutants..I am winning.Yeah.. this stuff works..I have my bedroom back.. they are gone.. only a few here and there.. Easy to kill..I will let it hang for two more days.. and then discard my ADD stick..I have my apartment back!
