So disappointed! No longer recommend. Seller never responded.
Update : never received any response from seller after 3 attempts. Obviously don't care about their customers.I bought three bottles of auntie's product on Amazon 6 days ago to replace my DIY liquid attractant of appl cider vinegar +brown sugar +dish detergent.It's been 5 days and can confirm the other negative reviews that the product CAN'T contain the same liquid attractant - the fruit flies feed on the liquid and are not trapped - they can fly away!!!I unintentionally performed a side by side experiment using this WORTHLESS product against my attractant. Both liquids were placed next to separate hanging cylinders of bright yellow sticky fly paper.I actually watched the flies fly from the auntie's product into my liquid. Unlike the auntie product, any flies that were not trapped in my DIY liquid were trapped in the fly paper.After 5 days I had to replace the fly paper adjacent to DIY liquid. in contrast, the 3 bottles of Auntie containing who knows what had A TOTAL OF LESS THAN 20 IN THE BOTTLES AND ABOUT 10 TO 20 TRAPPED BY THE FLY PAPER.I am so angry about wasting money on products from Amazon with good reviews. This product has overall rating of 3.8. But that rating is CUMULATIVE - The much older reviews are generally positive compared to more current negative reviews. I conclude this is due to a change in formulation that neither amazon or the seller made clear.I was so pleased that Good Housekeeping had recommended the best way to eliminates fruit fly infestations in a recent article. The GH panel included this product as the only commercially effective liquid attractant since it contained malic acid as part of the formulation. the article made me remember that I had used Aunties successfully a few summers ago and loved their esthetics and effectiveness.I already emailed a request for them to provide evidence of its effectiveness using a recent bottle.I am requesting a refund from this seller based on my results and will update the status with both responses.Meanwhile if you are battling with fruit flies, infestations made worse by the higher temperature (I live in Connecticut) in the Northeast, read below.First understand that you must use the following steps throughout the fruit fly lifecycle (over several weeks so that the original fruit flies are trapped as well as the their progeny hatched from the hundreds of larvae deposited on whatever they fed on. {I am a biochemist and patent attorney so I needed to know what was going on}.Keep in mind for DIY solutions or other traps that you must attract and rid them from escaping. Otherwise you'll have dead flies near and flying around the attractant.A single fruit fly will deposit hundreds of larvae on fruit and vegetables and existing food sources.Follow these steps :1. Clean all surfaces daily with your typical all purpose cleaner (I use Fantastic with bleach) wherever you find these annoying bugs. For us this is primarily the kitchen in addition to the bathroom and TV room.REMEMBER THEY ARE ATTRACTED TO LIGHT AND 1 FLY WILL DEPOSIT EGGS THAT MATURE IN about 5 to7 DAYS.2. Unfortunately surface cleaning every 1-2 days is necessary to eliminate flying flies you see and larva that will hatch that you can't.3. Immediately thoroughly wash all fruit and vegetables (existing or new) and refrigerate.4. Eliminate All food debris from kitchen counters, microwave, garbage cans, toaster oven, pet water and food bowls, etc. and keep everything covered or washed like used knives, glassware and plates.5. If you think this is drastic like I did, then you will see an infestation that feels as if those little things won...6. in the article, Good housekeeping recommended this product as using malic acid which is found in apple cider vinegar. It was part of discussion on using a DIY solution see ingredients above. Any solution must also contain a detergent which causes the flies eating on the attractant liguid to sink in the solution. They can't fly away and begin a new cycle of depositing eggs. At the beginning of the infestation I used the ingredients above along with standing/hanging yellow sticky fly paper I also bought from Amazon.I am very frustrated that I didn't do the research and work upfront instead of wasting money trying to find the non-existent magic bullet all summer!! As much as I love tasty vine ripened tomatoes and other summer fruit and vegetables, it's just not worth it. I think the high temperatures in July throughout the North East as well as nationaly/globally contributed to the problem experienced by me and almost everyone I know.

Great product but maybe don't do form over function?????
Great product but making the container like a seasoning shaker while cute is well dumb... for one this is meant to be open sitting on a counter top where peoples hands and arms are moving to get stuff. So maybe a squater container while not cute is much much more stable than a seasoning shaker they literally get knocked over by just a little touch... and mine did spilled the chemical everywhere it was fantastic....Also because you made the container cute you failed to notice that the more surface area the bugs have to accumulate and accidentally fly into the trap for a drink the faster you catch them. Again form over function maybe don't let your marketing team lead you and let product design and engineering win the day...That said the product does work really well and is catching the flys well one of them is since the other one tipped over. fire the person that decided that was a good idea cuz its not

Not as effective as I hoped, other products seemed to work better :(
Currently battling a fruit fly problem and ordered a couple different traps to try out. This was one I picked up since I heard good things about it and I could place it in my kitchen. I got this, one of those little apple traps, and the STEM trap that is similar. Prior to ordering these, I've been using apple cider vinegar with dawn dish soap to attract the flies and that had been working well.Unfortunately, the flies are just not attracted to these in my house. They're going to the apple shaped traps and the STEM trap. The apple cider vinegar mixtures are still working like a charm. I'm almost fly free! But I check these traps and maybe one fly is in them. Just seems like you can get better products for your money, but at least the prep is easy.

It worked!!!
At first I was skeptical because it didn’t appear that it was working. But after a few days, using two of these, I am happy to report that I am fruit fly free!!! Oh and just so you know, the fruit flies weren’t in my kitchen - they remained in a family room area off of my kitchen.
