3. Day Flying Insects: Day flying insects such as flies,
hornets, beetles and wasps do not respond mainly to
black light rays as do night flying insects, These in-
sects respond more to odor.
Your Bugwacker can be equipped to attract these
insects by use of a bait tray available as an accessory.
Note: Bait tray cannot be used when Bugwacker is
I post mounted.

sisting of honey, syrup, perfume or a mixture of
sugar and water
House Flies can be lured with meat or fish scraps or
with a special pheromone available as an accessory,
(Stock no. 14322), at your Sears retail store. This

ive in luring houseflies, blowflies, garbage flies and
