The item arrived broken :( I am SUPREMELY disappointed because I was so excited at the thought of having an effective method to combat my nemesis that is the mischievously thriving fruit fly colony which plagues me, and this item arrived this morning broken. :( The blades of the fan internally are not connected and are banging about inside. Though I don't normally pay full price for things unless necessary (I either wait for a good sale or use applicable coupons/promo codes), I took the plunge on this purchase due to my need for a competent and efficient resolve combined with it's GLOWING reviews! First, I had to wait 9 days to receive the item, which I wasn't happy about, but not upset either. I have literally been checking tracking daily and looking forward to it's arrival. Then it arrives *HAPPY DAY*. I opened the package, removed the unit (felt/heard something odd but didn't think too much of it at that moment), reviewed the directions, plugged it in and although the light came on, the fan did not. I thought maybe I need to press a particular button or what-have-you, so I re-read the directions. Nope, it should be automatic. So I then began inspecting the unit and realized the fan blades were not connected. I then even looked for a way to open the unit without busting it so that I can fix it myself (I'm incredibly handy and that's how much I wanted this to work!). No go. I could probably open it up, but then it wouldn't be returnable. Ok, so THEN I go to the item link on Amazon and as of earlier today, it said "This item is currently unavailable" followed by something to the effect of 'and we don't know if or when it will become available'. I attempted to contact the seller to no avail. My only viable option was and is to return it. I don't want to return it for a refund or leave a bad review. Rather, I want the working unit I paid and patiently waited for. Errrrr. I decided to go about my day knowing I'd come back to this later and here I am. ... I pull the item up this evening, it is in fact available again, but instead of the $39.79 price I paid 9 days ago, it is right now (6/15/2018) listed at $54.49. Whaaaa?? So I am leaving this review in hopes that the seller will contact me and make good on my purchase, at which point I would update my review to reflect the working conditions of this seemingly enigmatic device. In summary, this 1 star review encompasses only that the item arrived broken and therefore did not operate as intended. A working unit may very well be worthy of all it's positive reviews. And maaaaybe even the new $54.49 price. I hope I am a unique case. I also hope this review was of help to you. Update 6/17/18: The seller contacted me today apologizing for my inconvenience and explaining that Amazon is responsible for the damage done during the shipping of this product. I responded immediately that I appreciate the response and although I completely understand that Amazon assumes the shipping responsibility, I am also concerned that I cannot repurchase a working unit at the price I paid 2 weeks ago. I inquired how this can be rectified, stating that I fully intend to update my review according to their level of service and the actual benefits of a working unit. And now I await their response. Honestly, if I have to repurchase at the higher price, I won't and I'll leave my review star at 1. It's not the price as much as the principle. Products can be damaged in shipping, that's understandable. But the seller is also responsible for commitment. So I'm really hoping they come through with a reasonable resolve that honors the price I paid for a working unit. I'll keep you posted. Update 7/1/18: The seller not only replaced my originally bought unit, but included extras as well. They have been extremely diligent in correspondence and I can honestly say that I am not only satisfied, but impressed. With that said, I would not have altered my review to 5 stars for customer service alone. ...these units works amazingly! The home I live in was built in 1924 and does not sport insulation the way a new home would. So pests are/can be/were a problem. The units do in fact attract flying things very well! The sticky pad of results had 2 bugs I didn't know I had and don't recognize. I am extremely happy with my purchase! And may very well buy more. The unit itself is aesthetically pleasing and is relatively quiet. Night is the best time for results since that's when it's darkest and the bugs can 'see' the light. The blue light transitions in brightness, which is even more effective in attracting it's prey. I'm changing my review from a 1 star to a 5 star. I saw other reviews stating it was a flimsy design. I do get what they're saying, but how thick must this unit be to rectify that?? It works as intended and looks good doing it. The bottom is easy to open to check and/or replace the sticky pad. There are only 2 buttons so it's super easy to operate. And it doesn't look like a bug catcher at all. No one would know. So I feel it's 'flimsiness' (is that a word?) is of no concern. As long as it performs, who cares how heavy or thick it is? This is 5 stars from someone who had to work for it. I hope this review helped you! Happy bug hunting :)

I live in Florida and get multiple fruit-fly invasions every year - especially when it’s wet and hot. Plenty of them hitchhike in on bananas; the rest just walk in from outside when the humidity spikes. Wet bait traps always worked, but they were slow. I looked at the Katchy (and every competitor) every time the flies showed up and kept refusing to pay the asking price. It’s a plastic cylinder, a small fan, a UV LED, and glue boards. Not exactly rocket science. This summer the flies finally won. I bought one. Setup takes about thirty seconds: drop in a sticky pad, snap it shut, plug it in, hit the button. I parked it in the passthrough between the great room and kitchen and left it running. After 48 hours the first pad was completely covered - flies were still flying inside the unit because there was no more sticky real estate. I started changing the pad daily after that. Photos for Days 1–2, Day 3, and Day 4 are attached. It’s quiet, effective, and the UV + airflow combo actually works. I still think the price is aggressive; I’d buy two more tomorrow at $30. For now I just rotate the single unit to wherever the flies are concentrating. Verdict: Works as advertised, quiet, overpriced, and still worth it once you’re under siege. I can’t vouch for other insects, but this is a fruit fly terminator.

Arrived promptly, easy to use and easy to clean out. Fairly quiet operation-has the sound of a computer fan running on standard setting. We have an electric racket that we were using to take out the house flies but the drain flies were too small and flew through the wires for the most part. We have a large expensive bug trap but it is noisy and does not seem to attract the little flies, or they are too small to be zapped by it. Set up the Katchy bug trap and filled a glue trap within 24 hrs. from the greenhouse. Even got a couple house flies. The problem is not gone and we switched the sticky pad out when the numbers seemed to be increasing again. The sticky part wasn't 100% covered but it seems to max out at about 3/4 full. When I opened the machine several tiny flies flew out since they were able to hang out on covered areas. The new sticky pad immediately caught some but it has slowed down from the first round. Playing around with setting it under the overhang of a cabinet to see if a darker area is more effective. While the trap did not rid us of the problem it seems to be making a sizable dent in the issue. Most effective trap we have found for the tiny annoying things that are not attracted to fruit fly bait and are too small for a standard bug zapper. *Edit* Added a pic of the sticky paper after 3 days of 24 hr operation on standard setting. This amount of coverage is the point where new bugs fail to stick. Opened the trap outside to change the sticky paper. We put the trap back in the window, it seems to work better there for us. *2nd edit* still use two of these-one in the green house and one by the back door in spring/summer. This is particularly good for mosquitos, gnats, fungus flies, fruit flies and small moths. It will not lure 100% of them but does a good job taking down the population like in the greenhouse picture included. It is okay for house flies but many do not get stuck so if that is your biggest problem then this is not the trap for you. It will not hold anything bigger than a house fly for sure. The light began to fade the 2nd year so you might consider this a yearly purchase if you use it continuously like we do. Power outages will shut off the trap and you have to reset.

TL;DR Buy a hand vacuum for $20 and a $20 present to yourself so you can put up with hunting the bugs yourself (instead of buying this item... if the bugs in question are moths). My picture misleadingly shows a lot was caught, but this was a span of over 21 nights. (Arguably I should change trap out often, but you’d have to read on before you try making that point.) So I’ve got a moth problem. Lots of moths + kitchen area x many weeks = annoyed me. (Sorry, pun was just there.) I’ve tried a variety of ways to have this product work well. Left it near food or problem areas, kept the place dark so only light source is the UV, stuff like that. I even tried shoving a live one above the fan (after a while you learn how to catch them by hand) and clasping my hands over it so the only way the moth can move is where the fan is sucking in... I peeked in from the gaps between my fingers and it was just chilling on the plastic fan guard. If it chose to fly it would probably get sucked in but it just started crawling on the guard trying to escape without flying. I had to startle it into flying a couple times before it finally got sucked into the trap. (The first attempts had it land back and grip onto that fan guard so maybe it wouldn’t get caught even if it did try to fly) I tried giving it over a week to see how effective it was at catching anything (Manual says it is effective with moths), checking periodically. After a few nights I had about 4 or 5 caught moths. I resorted to using my dirt devil hand vacuum ($20) and within a span of 3-5 hours with occasional 30 second vacuuming, I caught more than 4 times the number of moths than the trap did (in ideal conditions for 3 days). I kept observing the next few weeks. And no, I don’t have those large moths that won’t fit through the guard. The product concept is sound on paper but actual execution falls short. This is probably ideal for smaller-lighter insects like gnats, but “can still catch” stuff like moths from time to time. If this item was for like $20, I’d try to self-argue the efficiency issue with the device being a passive way to catch things. Maybe even get a second one in hopes of bettering the catch rate. But at $40 for one with this abysmal success rate... Here is the math: My picture has 25 moths, caught in more than 3 weeks of nights, generously averaging to a little above 1 moth caught per night. (That’s about the same rate as the first 3 nights as described before.) I’ve tested the adhesive after taking the picture and it is still quite sticky and some of the recently caught moths are still moving so it’s not as if it can’t catch anymore due to poor adhesion (but I’d probably toss it after a few more days tops, just in case). Some baby fruit flies were also caught but even the manual says the device can’t be used for adult ones. The rating system is also pretty bad. Easy to use, thickness, and adhesion. Easy to use is deceptive; still gave it a 5 since it was simple but as mentioned, does the intended job poorly. Thickness? Really? Maybe it means how visually discreet it is? I don’t want to give good/bad ratings over a misunderstanding. Adhesion, small bugs that get stuck stay stuck, but only if caught; 5 rating, but again, kinda moot if things aren’t caught often. (The only thing I didn’t follow in the manual was changing the sticky trap frequently. If I did, I’d be going “Woo, 3 moths... time to change the trap”) The manual claims this to be effective against moths but that seems to be a lie... or they had the gnat sized moths forcibly crammed into the trap in their testing facility.

THE INSTRUCTIONS STATE TO WAIT THREE DAYS TO SEE THIS UNIT IN ACTION. Therefore ,I will post review over a three day period. DAY 1 - The item arrived and it was super easy to setup. All you had to do was press a button open up the bottom compartment, place a glue-paper pad inside it (after you peel off the protective sheet off of the sticky side). Then you connect up the power cord, plug it in, and then choose a power setting from the two buttons on top (Low Setting and Standard Setting). I set it up at Standard Setting during the day, and then set it at Low Setting at overnight. I also set the unit up right beside an open bowl of Apple Cider Vinegar, to help attract the fruit fly pests to the unit. I checked it the next day, with the unit still running, and saw fruit flies flying and walking over the fan grills and not being sucked in at all. Meanwhile, the Apple Cider Vinegar bowl did it's job at attracting the fruit flies, and even killed a few that landed inside the bowl. DAY 1 VERDICT - ONE STAR, BECAUSE YOU CAN'T MDO A ZERO STAR RATING. IT STRAIGHT UP DID NOTHING. Day 2 - After turning it on the Standard setting, within a few hours, there were a few fruit flies stuck on the pad. After leaving it overnight, there weren't hardly any more fruit flies on the pad. Meanwhile, my apple cider vinegar and fly paper traps had a significantly higher of captured insects. In fact, these lure-trap combinations did better than the "Katchy", even though I paired it with an apple cider vinegar lure. DAY 2 VERDICT: It is now sucking in fruit flies, though not apparently attracting very many of them. Day 3 - The Katchy trap, on standard mode, works best in the dark. During the day, with ANY ambient lights on, insects just aren't attracted to it. Placing it next to another lure works - like a dish of apple cider vinegar. There are all kinds of DIY, Apple Cider Vinegar and soap solution traps you can pair with the Katchy, as well as fly paper strips and sheets. But the Katchy is not a one-and-done, singular solution to your fruit fly problem. Fruit flies reproduce FAST, and they lay about 400 eggs at once. They also live for 25-30 days, so you must focus on eliminate their food source, and then use traps to control their population. DAY 3 VERDICT - It starts slowly, and the results will not knock your socks off, if you were looking to this device to eradicate your pest problem. I can be used as PART of your more comprehensive pest plan, but it's not the silver bullet that they advertise themselves to be. THREE STARS. It's okay, but there are more effective solutions.

I bought the Katchy because we occasionally get those annoying little gnats and fruit flies in the house, especially around the kitchen. I wanted something I could leave running without spraying insect killer around indoors. At first, I honestly wasn't sure how much it was doing. It sits there quietly with the UV light on and the fan running, so there isn't much indication that anything is happening. Then I checked the sticky pad inside and realized it had been catching quite a few little flying insects. That's probably what I like most about it—it works in the background. The light attracts the insects toward the unit, the fan pulls them down, and the sticky pad keeps them trapped. I can leave it running and periodically check or replace the pad when needed. The black design also doesn't scream “bug trap” when it's sitting in the house. It looks more like a small electronic device, which I appreciate if I'm keeping it somewhere visible. I’ve had the best results using it in darker areas and letting it run for extended periods rather than expecting every bug in the house to disappear in an hour. I wouldn't consider this a substitute for finding and eliminating whatever is causing a serious insect problem, but for those irritating fruit flies, gnats, and other small flying bugs that occasionally show up, it has been surprisingly useful. The proof was on the sticky pad.

I have purchased 3 of these: 1 for my son's home, 1 for my work and 1 for my home. It works wonderfully in all places. You purchase the replacement pads here on Amazon. Does it eliminate the gnats, flies and other bugs completely...no that is what pest control is for, does it get the gnats flying around my fruit, compost and office plants, YES. I have even caught a Junebug and spider.

Works great. Nothing worse than getting a mosquito in the house, and in 3 days, we've trapped several along with tiny biting gnats, small moths and one house fly. As stated in description, not really for flies, but any dead mosquito makes it worth it for me.
