THIS INDOOR LAMP DOES KILL FLYING INSECTS OUTDOORS/INDOORS - THE BEST!
UPDATE 2/13/17 - I love this product. Just bought my fourth lamp. I gave one away, have one on the covered porch and one indoors. After the no-seeum infestation subsided post nearby road construction completion, we now have a swarm of visiting mosquitoes, something new to this neighborhood. I am changing the porch glue card every two or three days since it gets practically full of mosquitoes and a few other flying insects since the first night in use. This product is unbelievable and there is no mess to clean. I will now call the Mosquito Control Department in hopes that they will treat the area. I definitely recommend this product. While mosquitoes do not usually enter the house, the no-see-ums do stick around the door to enter, uninvited! END OF UPDATE.ORIGINAL PROBLEM AND NEED FOR THE LAMPS: The Westerly winds this year have sent a swarm of no-see-ums flying into our homes. It appears the insects' larvae was disrupted with Turnpike construction and they decided to nest our way. This lamp worked great since day one when it caught twenty-five no-see plus mosquitos and even an ant in just a few hours in the covered porch. They are so tiny that can penetrate the screens. I then placed the lamp inside the house. It caught another twenty-five the first day, but from then on the lamp attracts an average of 10 daily. Their bite is worst than the mosquito's and it lasts and lasts. It is horrible! I have to use home made repellents all day long and - small as they are - they can bite through clothing. Hopefully, they should be gone soon. I threw away most of my outdoor plants and have been fumigating outside, but none of that has helped. They visit the laptop screen but are hard to catch. Before I learned about the lamp, my legs had a horrible rash from the bites, even though I did not scratch for fear of an infection, particularly since I was using a blend of citronella essential oil, tea tree oil, peppermint oil and alcohol (the recipe called for vodka). I spray that below the laptop desk and on my legs. I do not know I could have coped without this lamp. The downside is the price of the glue boards.UPDATEI have used the lamp (I have two) for a few months now and it does attract and kill no-see-ums inside/outside the house. It is not for outdoors; however, I have a covered porch where I install it on/off. While there, it attracts mainly no-see-ums, but it has caught a mosquito or two, flying moths, and other nocturnal insects. The most important thing is to close the doors quickly upon entering/exiting the house. Since the initial "kill," I only get visited inside once a week or even less; thus, I have removed the lamp. The unit usually catches the culprit after a good meal, though. I am glad I came across this lamp and don't think that any other one could do a better job. It only works with glue cards since they are attracted to the light (black light) and end up stuck in the glue card. I no longer have the lamp in the porch since the no-see-ums from hell population has diminished and I do not want to attract any ones left to my house. >>For this reason, they sell the Flowtron lamps (just bought one) that is to be placed a few feet away from the house. Not to be used inside (search for black light dangers on the internet). The outdoors Flowtron lamp should be placed a few feet away from people and there should not be any visual contact with the lamp for...eye-safety reasons.<<UPDATE: 4/24/2015 - The no-see-ums are gone now. For good...? Who knows.... I have spent hundreds of dollars on chemicals and natural products to get rid of these insects from hell or to soothe the itch, or to avoid infection; however, my two FlyWeb FlyTrap lamps were the ones that helped me the most. Indoors, it got rid of the initial invisible invasion, and kept attracting the ones that kept coming inside the house as the doors opened. They did their job for about one year. The outdoors one may have contributed to the extermination and/or possible relocation of the flying beasts. During the heavy infestation outdoors, the 3x5 glue card would catch hundreds INSIDE my covered porch in just three to four days. If they should return, I will probably need to buy new bulbs since they are said to last one year or so.For those who wrote claiming to have dozens of them inside their house, some recovering from an illness - adding to their health problems - I can attest to the fact that the lamps work (not to be exposed to the weather at all). What do no-see-ums look like? Some are so tiny that can only be detected with a jewler's loupe. Under a magnifying glass, they look just like a mosquito - with long legs and wings. I only knew what was biting me when one landed on my laptop and I was able to get it with Scotch tape. By then it was too late, my legs were showing the red dots and welts they left behind. At that point, I began searching the net for solutions and this lamp proved to be the best. UPDATE: I guess the hurricane winds brought us a swarm of no-see-ums but, thanks to this magic lamp they are gone from inside the house snf I do not see them outside either. It took me a week to get rid of them since they lay lots of eggs. Not having any inside plants or water deposits; having the lamp catching them (the easiest method to kill them compared to other products I bought); using safe bug lotions on body; turning the fans on and the air conditioning very low... In the end, they disappeared. Inhospitable, they said on the way out.

Worked for me, bulbs never went out, caught a LOT of flies (take a look)
Yes, as I just finished this review I can admit, it’s long. But unlike online comments, it’s not misspelled and is written in fully formed sentences. And contains advice. (Nutshell version: worked well for me).I can’t explain why any products works for some and not for others - all I can say about this particular fly catcher is it worked really well when I found areas of my home were overrun with small flies due to a well meaning gift of plants that turned out to have been their home before relocating to mine.I mean it was a mess and like nothing I had ever had to deal with before…They became noticeable during the next day (fairly dormant at night and in colder weather) and the appearance of the *tiniest* flies I had ever witnessed confirmed my fear that they had in fact been born once coming inside 😳😳😳.Choose Amazon due to being a bit house bound after an injury and others unable to offer in stock + same day delivery.*** NOTE: READ EVERY PRODUCT’S SPECIFIC INSECT COMPATIBILITY CAREFULLY - many UV fly ‘traps’ work on fruit flies, NOT house flies, so be sure to take the time find one that specifically lists house flies as one of the intended targets.This was one of a few different types of fly-murder-products that I ordered in a bit of a “multi-weapon” approach, along with the old school (yellow) hanging fly stick (not strip) & one that worked with a liquid solution.Unlike some of the other unfortunate reviews I’ve read, I have not had any issues with the UV light burning out/dying and I’ve had 2 of them plugged in 24/7 for the last 17 days. I plugged one in by the kitchen sink and one in a low wall outlet near pet food. Decided to keep them going as a preventative measure after the overwhelming majority had been eradicated with the help of all 3 different products. (The old school fly stick - again STICK, not hanging strips - worked like a real champ too if cost is a factor). I didn’t get extra glue boards with the order but once the initial ones were full I placed the fly sticks right next to the lights for a while as all of the items worked to eradicate the virtual swarm that was discovered on 6/7. I even made a board covered with double sided extra adhesive tape that worked well, if not as well as the original included with the UV light.Hopefully my photos will upload with no issues (haven’t tried yet) so you can see the amount of flies caught. Flies are also attracted to non UV’s, like the light of a phone, as I’ve discovered recently. Having been rid of the accidental swarm for a while, I’m now keenly aware of even a single fly being anywhere inside. Almost none of the flies caught with particular product were anywhere near full or even half sized. I think I genuinely saw one adult size among any of the items, which was perhaps the “Aliens” style mother trying to crank out offspring before I could play Ripley and mow them down.So, who is to say why there are 5 ⭐️ and 1 ⭐️ reviews of the same item? All I know is mine worked as advertised, and I empathize with those who didn’t have the same luck.If you’re facing a real situation/feeling overrun you may want to try my shotgun approach and go with a few different types of products, see what works best. I’m going to get a pack of the glue boards to keep on hand and see how long the bulb lasts. In the desert/horse property areas of Las Vegas they will be used preventatively all summer.

A house saver.
This is an awesome product for keeping flies from taking over the attic.

Worth it.
Great product! Obviously works best at night but it has done its job well.

Seems to work sort of, but seems cheaply made
We live rurally and struggle with flies in the house. I have been using window traps for ages with moderate success, so thought that I'd give this a try since the commercial models are over $300. Ad says it has CDN certification, and it does on the box, but the device does not, so it doesn't meet CDN standards. The light wiggles terribly in the housing and is turned to the side. It does seem to attact flies though and has helped the overall number in our house, but I wouldn't buy this particular one again. Quality control seems to be lacking and the lack of CDN certification marks makes me nervous.

Doesn’t last
Works great until it craps out. The bulb consistently flashes and quits.
