Victor M230 Ultimate Flea Trap
Preemptive note: I apologize for the sound quality.
This is a review of the Victor M230 Ultimate Flea Trap. This review shows the results of four traps. Please note that I have never been compelled to write a review for any product I've purchased through Amazon, until now.
In my opinion, the number of fleas caught varies based on placement. Some reviewers mentioned moving their traps to various places with no success. Though I'm not sure why they didn't experience success, you'll see in this video that the product actually does work.
My patio and living room were the most infested. The trap reviews in those areas show the most trapped fleas. The traps used in my home office and the linoleum-floored bathroom (where the cat box and food dish reside) show little-to-no trapped fleas.
I typically keep my home office door closed, which is why there are fewer fleas, thus lower results. I believe the fleas are more pleased with carpet than linoleum, thus the sole-flea result for that trap.
While other reviewers may have experienced low-to-no results, placement *may* be a possible factor. (Operative phrase - "may be possible.")
Otherwise, I experienced the same kind of results with the paper plate, water, and dish soap method on the porch. This method was not as effective as the Victor traps within the apartment. The water and soap method didn't attract *any* fleas in my home office or living room, even over a period of 2-3 days. Victor traps produced results overnight.
Thanks for considering this video as you decide on your purchase.
