Well I made several with the formula I googled and published , basically
it is so sticky the fly can't get away without self destruction and
after several days have captured a lot of flies , the dogs are far less
bothered and no longer foll0wed by a dark cloud
I declare a success

g'day john,
the recipes aren't mine to own, but i tried them all last season with
no success, or similar to current formula. seems that it depends
largely on when and where the female hatches and gets her fix of
protein. if she gets the fix before coming to your garden then the
traps are ineffective, it would seem.
