Abstract: A fly trap includes a cylindrical side wall made of a mesh material; a bottom wall located proximate (i.e., “at or near”) the bottom end of the side wall; a top wall located proximate the top end of the side wall; a conical entry conduit extending from proximate the bottom wall and providing an entry path to the interior chamber of the fly trap; and a lure holding device for holding a fly lure composition beneath the bottom opening of the entry conduit. The entry conduit may include an extending flange member that forms at least a portion of the bottom wall of the trap. Preferably, the top wall and/or some other part of the fly trap includes a light reflecting device, such as a prism or reflector, to help attract attention to the trap in the daylight. Also, to help attract attention to the trap at night, one or more surfaces may be coated with or constructed from a material that glows in the dark (e.g., a powder containing a commercially available phosphorescent material).

Abstract: A fly trap has a housing body with an entry conduit mounted within the housing body and supported therein. A lure holding tray is supported by the legs underneath the open bottom of the entry conduit and is adapted to receive a fly attractant mixture therein. The bait is formed from organic, non-toxic, non-hazardous material, which can be safely exposed to the environment for the purposes of attracting the flies into the fly trap.
