Vector 960 Fruit Fly Traps
The 960 Vector fruit fly trap is engineered with a 10-hole venting lid to optimize Fruit Fly exposure to the vapors emitted from the liquid attractant.

Tools Needed

How to Use
- Step 1:Tear off the foil seal and attach the 10-hole venting lid and it is ready for placement. Be careful not to spill the liquid attractant. For a more secure placement, use the glue dots included in each case.
- Step 2: Place the traps in areas where Fruit Flies have been seen. Place the traps where they will not be disturbed or tipped.
