Default Greenhouse Flycatchers for tables

hubby brought some of these for the tables, they are double sided and can be either hung or stuck up and as they are non poisonous they are ideal to stick to the inner sides of the tables. They are working already and have lots of those horrid little black flies that seem to live in some especially mine, tables. They aren't the twisty paper things and were £6.99 for 7 of them.

We had those last year for our chicken shed. I didn't keep them long, although I hate the flies I couldn't stand the thought that they lived for hours, even up to 24, stuck but not dead, just struggling to get away. What a horrible death. Had to bin them in the end. But that's just me, bit of a sad case really.

They are called Greenhouse Flycatcher by a company called Bayer Garden, www.bayergarden.co.uk, hubby brought them in our local garden centre. The 'strips are double sided and are covered with peel off sheets and are sticky enough to be stuck to the side of the table or else hung up, they are non toxic and have no pesticides etc. Mine are working really well and are attracting the tiny black flies/bugs I'm getting in the table, I think they came in with the planted weeds but obviously are attracted to any food, they cost £6.99 for 7.
