TERRO Garbage Guard Insect Killer

We bought this over a month ago for our trashcan. We were having major fly and maggot issues with the new trash can that our county provided us. We purchased this product, disinfected and cleaned the can, then installed it. We reinforced it by tying a shoe string around it so it wouldn’t fall off during pick up - which it would have so don’t skip this part!Here we are almost 2 weeks after Hurricane Milton and our trashcan has been sitting down at the curb next to another identical trashcan, both waiting for pick up. Ours is 100% fly and maggot free - the other one is covered inside and out!!. The cans were only about 2 feet apart and it works that well. Our is still perfectly clean!!This Product works! I will always have one in our trashcan going forward. The shoe string was key since after the first pick up it fell off, but it’s still in the can securely with the shoestring. I also read a lot of people secure it with screws inside of their trashcanEither way, buy it if you’re having an issue! We’ve had it for an entire month so far and not one single fly! It works amazingly and you can’t beat the price!!

Reading the previous reviews, I was a bit skeptical byuing it. But I can tell you that it works well the day I put it in. Flies are still around the bin but always ended up dying. No more maggots and bad smell. So happy.Back to buy a couple more.100% recommend this products.

Effect is very good

A few things…It definitely works! So glad I have this to keep the flies away! Flies have been so bad lately (unusual for September). It’s been great with my 3 cans. Can’t believe I never got this before.Use a hose and clean out your trash to get rid of flies, maggots, and odors before using.When you open package, there are two slits. Double sided tape is top part of package you tear open. The device is bottom part of package you open. People saying there was no tape didn’t tear top portion.DON’T use the tape- it’s pointless and will not stay stuck to can. You can use velcro tape, but I didn’t want to take a chance it would fall off.Just use some string or ribbon and hang inside can. Super easy to thread a piece of string through the holes and hang in can. It won’t ever fall off on trash day, and it’ll be easy to replace in 3 months.Definitely get this (just don’t use the tape). Tape is why it’s not getting 5 stars. Company should include strong adhesive strip..not some tiny square that doesn’t stick.

stick it on the bottom of the garbage bin, it stuck on for maybe a week then it fell off
