    Discover the $12 miracle fly trap from Bunnings that shoppers can't get enough of!

    I used the ones from Bunnings around the chook pen when we had chooks, and caught so many flies, but the stink when emptying them was gagging. I would bury the contents immediately. Too costly to refill more than every few days with the tempting solution they come with.
