Attracting pesky gnats is the heart of what we do, Sophia, so we'd love to provide some helpful info to allow you to get the most out of your Zevo Flying Insect Trap. The traps work best when in spots easily accessible to flying insects. Avoid placing in spots where it’s hard for flying insects to access, like behind furniture, curtains, or other tucked-away spots. Also, to make the trap appealing to bugs, it’s best not to place it near other lights at night, as the blue and UV light attracts bugs to the trap, and they can get confused or distracted by several light sources. So we can learn more, we hope you'll call us at (866) 215-1297, 9 AM — 6 PM EST, Monday – Friday.
