Outdoor Exterminator" or "Genuine Hodge Exterminator"
endorsed by Prof. Hodge with instructions. |

| This trap could be hung from a string or the back of a chair, mounted to a trash can or window screen, or simply set on a flat surface. It is in excellent original condition with no rust to be found. The only damage is to the envelope. There is a flap tear and a stain where the envelope sat against the wire in the frame. The trap measures approx. 6" tall x 6" wide to the tip of the handle. The "How to Trap the Deadly Fly" instructions measure approx. 5" x 7" when fully unfolded. | ||

The colorful, corked, amethyst fly trap above and at the far left are typical of the late 1900 century. The trap at the near left is typical of the home-made variety. As with home-made traps today, these traps were marginally effective. |

This century old fly trap demonstrates the effort made into making the disgusting beautiful. As the great 19th century American architect Louis Sullivan put it so aptly: "Form follows function." And with that in mind FliesBeGone is perhaps the most attractive fly trap available.
