This pack of 4 Sticky Fly Papers from DOFF is designed for individuals seeking a chemical-free solution to manage flying pests in their homes, particularly in areas like greenhouses, doorways, and windows.

FAQs

Are these fly papers safe to use around pets?

Yes, these sticky fly papers are chemical-free and use a non-toxic adhesive, making them safe for use in homes with pets.

How long does a sticky fly paper last?

The lifespan of a fly paper depends on the level of insect activity and environmental conditions. Typically, they last for several weeks until they are full of trapped insects or the adhesive loses effectiveness due to dust and debris.

Can these be used in kitchens?

Absolutely. They are designed for use in kitchens and other indoor areas where a clean and fresh environment is important, as they contain no chemicals.

What is the best way to dispose of a used fly paper?

Carefully remove the used fly paper, fold it over to contain the trapped insects, and dispose of it in your regular household waste.

How many fly papers are included in a pack?

This product is a pack of 4 sticky fly papers.

Do I need to do anything to activate the sticky surface?

No, the sticky surface is ready to use upon removing its protective covering.

Troubleshooting

Fly paper is not sticky.

Ensure the protective covering has been fully removed. If the paper has been exposed to dust or debris, its effectiveness may be reduced. Replace with a new sheet if it has lost its tackiness.

Flies are not being caught.

Ensure the paper is placed in a high-traffic area for flies. Flies need to land directly on the sticky surface. Try repositioning the paper closer to where flies are observed.

The paper is difficult to hang.

Utilize the provided hanging string, or a small thumbtack or pin, to secure the paper to a suitable surface like a ceiling hook, window frame, or plant support.
