The whole idea is keep fleas out of your house. Once they have invaded What do you do? I have tried every thing, sprays, powers you name it. These have been temporary solution at best. the best response to the invasion is to trap them. Each of the invaders you trap is 200 fleas removed. Once they are trapped, no kids. Yes the trap works and it removes fleas with out the deadly chemicals. If fleas get into your house and you prefer not to kill all the other residents of your house try the traps.

I have the trap and am on the second sticky pad (the unit that I
bought came with two sticky pads).

So, I bought the refill pack (which comes with three sticky pads).
I use my trap in the room that the dog sleeps in. In the daytime,
the dog is not in the room, the room is made dark, blinds closed,
door closed, from morning till night. The trap gets about 3-4
fleas per day and after a month that sticky pad looks disgusting
and coated with fleas. The key for me is to keep the room dark
during the day and keep the dog out of the room. The trap is the
only source of warmth and light in the room and attracts the fleas.

This is a terrible flea season where I live, and nothing in the
yard, or frontline on the dog seems to help. I walk my dog every
day so he will always pick fleas up. In addition to the trap
I've tried nemotodes in the yard and wet down the dog and flea
comb them off my dog and drown those fleas in soapy water about
two to three times per week. I've also got diatomaceous earth
rubbed into his bedding. I vacuum frequently.

This trap thing is great because its
no work compared to all the other things I do to fight fleas.
So I recommend buying these refills

Definitely have to love this product! The fleas hop on to this sticky paper and can't hop back off again! It's also easy to change out this sticky paper so it's virtually mess free! Worth every penny!!!

I first started using the Victor Ultimate Flea Trap when I lived in California because we had a problem with sand fleas coming in our back patio screen door. We also didn't want to use any pesticides, since we had four small house pets.

When we moved to Michigan, we continued using the traps because our child was born, and we felt even more strongly about avoiding pesticides. Although we did not have a flea problem, the traps have caught several types of spiders, the occasional house fly, a few random creepy crawlies, and even a hornet! Basically, they seem to trap anything attracted to the light/heat.

We keep them tucked away, out of sight (ex: in a back corner of our furnace room, under furniture), and in places where the pets can't get too curious -- getting a refill stuck to your skin (or dog fur) is the absolute worse.

All in all, I think we've been using these traps for nearly ten years now. The bulbs can be replaced with regular night light bulbs or the new LED bulbs.

This is the best at getting rid of fleas. This summer has been a long hot one and with that the fleas have been horrible in our area. ever since we bought this, our cats have been greatly relieved of fleas. Great product!!

I was getting bitten up every night. I bought 2 of these units and put one on the floor by my bed and one under my living room couch. I was amazed to see how many flees ended up on the pad. I found the best results when I kept my door open letting cold air in my house. it was about 50 degrees and the traps became extremely congested with fleas in that one day.

We have used this product for several years and it is most effective for reducing the adult flea population. If you cannot use sprays or are concerned about using sprays, this product is the next best items to use. The pack comes with three sticky pads, but I would order two packs, the first time it's used the sticky pad will fill up fast. You will need the flea trap holder with a small light; also available from Victor.

The product works WELL as advertised; however, to insert a replacement sticky disk into the flea trap you must peel the backing off the sticky disk. I have had much difficulty peeling some disks. In some instances I couldn't get the backing off the sticky disk at all. In total I have had 4 NG disks and returned 3 disks. 4 out of 40 in total is not acceptable.

Very satisfied. We have bought the flea trap and refills before and have always been satisfied.

These work great. They're very, very sticky at first. Be careful not to touch the sticky part! My only negative comment is that the glue eventually dries up so it's not sticky anymore. Why is this a problem? Because it's a waste. I caught about 20 fleas on the first pad before it stopped being sticky. I could have caught many more fleas if the glue hadn't dried up. It doesn't dry real fast. I suppose it was about a month before I discovered that the pad wasn't sticky anymore. In the meantime I was still using it to catch fleas, thinking that it was still working. But it had dried up. Besides this, I'd like it if the manufacturer redesigned the trap so that it snapped closed more securely. The way it is now, the top can easily be knocked off, exposing the glue pad. Overall, I would recommend this, regardless of these two small drawbacks. (Sorry if you think I said "sticky" too much!)
