Nature is our teacher! Put the cup down, and fruit flies plunk right in.

Unique design, based on a pattern from nature, greatly improves the trapping power. (Compared to previous KINCHO products)

We thoroughly researched fruit fly habits and nature’s mechanisms for luring them

1 Luring

Original design, inspired by nature

Fragrance
天南星

Contains an odorant from the cobra lily, which lures fruit flies to perform its pollination. This provides strong attraction.

Shape
Leading edge structure

Based on a feature of the fly-catching pitcher plants, the cup has “leading edge” structures that steer fruit flies toward the inside.
Lured by the odorant, the fruit fly walks along a leading edge to a hole, and falls in.

Color
Orange - a color fruit flies prefer.

2 Trapping

Exploiting fruit fly habits

Inside the cup is a mat permeated with a viscous liquid that contains the odorant fruit flies love. As soon as it enters the opening between the mat and the cover, the fruit fly is knocked out by an insecticide.

Highly effective!

The color variation between the mat and the cup is highly visible to fruit flies.

Effective for about 1 month
