The Gardening Naturally Fruit Fly Trap is an essential tool for home gardeners and allotment holders aiming to protect their soft fruit crops from the invasive Spotted Wing Drosophila (Drosophila suzukii). By using a specialized blend of cider vinegar and natural fruit extracts, this trap effectively lures and drowns target flies before they can damage ripening berries or stone fruits, though it requires regular maintenance and replenishment to ensure continuous protection throughout the growing season.

Yes, the attractant is made from natural fruit extracts and cider vinegar with no added synthetic chemicals.
No, the attractant is formulated specifically to target Drosophila suzukii and does not appeal to bees or other beneficial pollinators.
Replace the liquid every three weeks or sooner if the trap is full or has dried out.
It is highly effective for soft fruits like raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, cherries, grapes, and plums.
For optimal results, hang the trap at approximately 1 metre above ground level.
Each trap is effective for an area of up to 100 square metres.
Check that the trap is hung at the correct height of 1 metre and ensure it is placed in an area with active fruit growth.
During extreme heatwaves, check levels weekly. Ensure the trap is not placed in direct, harsh sunlight for the entire day if possible.
The scent is a natural component of the cider vinegar base. Ensure the lid is tightly fastened to prevent excessive ambient smell while allowing flies to enter.
Setting up your trap is straightforward. Simply fill the base of the trap with 100 ml of the provided attractant. Ensure the lid is secured properly to keep the flies contained. For compatibility, this product is designed for use in outdoor environments such as vegetable patches, orchards, and allotments. To care for your trap, wash out the container thoroughly between refills to remove old debris, which prevents the buildup of bacteria. If the trap remains empty for a long period, clean and store it in a dry place during winter months to extend the life of the plastic housing.
