Product Description
Amazon.com
Control fleas without having to spray your house with harmful chemicals, or putting chemicals on your pet with this powerful flea killer. The Victor Ultimate Flea Trap monitors and controls flea infestations. The features of this patented design produce a high efficiency trap that allows you to eliminate your flea problems without the need to spray synthetic chemicals. Lured in by the trap's color, the heat and light from the trap's light bulb, and the sweet odor of the bait placed in the specially formulated sticky glue disc, fleas don't stand a chance.
The non-poisonous and odorless trap enables safe placement around children and pets, and comes fully assembled and ready to use. Ultimate Flea Trap refills are also available so you can reuse the trap if an infestation happens again, making it one of the most economical options in eliminating fleas.
The Ultimate Flea Trap detects and controls indoor flea problems with a 93 percent catch rate as well as lures fleas out of upholstery and carpeting from up to 30 feet away. Adult Fleas use heat to find a warm-blooded host, which allows them to develop and reproduce. By simulating the warmth of the host, the Victor Ultimate Flea Trap attracts fleas from where they live and hide. The unique dome design attracts fleas from all directions and the Super Grabber glue holds them fast. Use the Ultimate Flea Trap flea killer year round as an early detection device. This package includes 1 trap and 2 glue discs.
Directions for Use
Separate the top canopy of the trap from the bottom tray using thumb grips
Carefully place the light socket into the hole in the top of the trap canopy.
Secure the socket in place with the treaded bulb protector provided. Do not over tighten.
Gently insert the provided bulb.
Insert the Glue Disc- grasp tab and remove release paper from the glue disc. Please the glue disc in the bottom of the trap.
Reassemble the trap by aligning the top canopy directly over the bottom tray and press down firmly.
For Best Results
Make sure that you have removed the release paper from refill disc. Place trap on floor in an area where fleas are a problem, usually where your pet spends a considerable amount of time. You may not be catching an abundant amount of fleas because:
The population of fleas will vary from week to week
You don't have a bad infestation at this time, but leave your flea trap on 24 hours a day as a preventative measure. Catching a new batch of fleas before they can reproduce is a very effective way to control flea problems.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Truly Terrifying Product...for Fleas June 4, 2010
By Sean T. Poindexter
Amazon Verified Purchase
I bought one of these on Tuesday, it arrived on Wednesday. It worked so well I just ordered six refills and a second unit.
I don't have a very serious flea problem, but it was bad enough that I was willing to try a new product. We have very thick carpet in most of our house, and while spraying and vacuuming gets rid of most of them, enough survive to restart the problem a few months later. I chose this one because another reviewer had put a photo of the sticky-pad covered with fleas. I considered it unlikely that someone had just caught a bunch of fleas and then thrown them onto the trap just to make the product look good. Also, it wasn't terribly expensive so, I gave it a shot...
It is fascinating and disturbing how this thing works. Fleas from all corners of the room (within 30 feet or so) move close to it and just gather around it like it's some kind of shrine to their glorious Flea-God. Eventually, they hop into the glow, thinking they are going to Fleahalla or wherever flea-warriors go when they die...and that's when they land on the sticky pad. They struggle for a few seconds, but every move buries them deeper in the muck and soon they stop, frozen in pain and panic as the dark curtain of death slowly descends. So, in a way, I guess they were right: jumping into the light WILL take you to Fleahalla, but instead of flea-valkaries you get agonizing death on a big sticky-disc.
This product works best in a dark room, where the light is the only source of light and heat available--also, it works better if you and your pets aren't in the room, either. We let it go overnight and in the morning it was choked with fleas. I was going to take a picture of it, but it's just so tragic and disgusting that I don't think I will. Read more ›

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant! October 26, 2006
By Whirled Peas
Amazon Verified Purchase
I must admit I was very skeptical about this, but decided to give it a try out of sheer desperation, and based on the favorable reviews on Amazon. I've got a flea issue with my bedroom carpet, and have tried sprays, continuous vacuuming, boric acid treatments, and dosing my pet with Frontline & Advantage products. While the Advantage works pretty darn well ON the pet, the carpet was still infested no matter what I tried. I plugged in this little contraption on the floor next to my bed, and within TWO HOURS I've already captured 18 fleas, and can actually SEE them hopping across the carpet to get to the trap! I think this is a brilliant, safe, pesticide-free solution to dealing with those pesky little ankle-biting devils that hide in the carpet! I'll continue to vacuum, but I intend to keep this thing plugged in at all times to grab the ones that get away or are newly hatched. Don't hesitate to buy this product!

5.0 out of 5 stars satisfied July 21, 2006
By michael berry
An earlier review of this product almost made me pass on the purchase, but I'm glad I didn't. I bought 2 and within the first ten hours 40-50 fleas were caught. Moving the traps periodically to new locations appears to be helpful. I plan to get additional traps for other problem areas.

3.0 out of 5 stars Low Cost Flea Infestation Control August 8, 2010
By Val Hickman
I have had good luck just taking a shallow pan about the size of an oil pan, or 4qt cook pan, put a little dawn soap in it, add about 2 inches of water, and then suspend a light over it so it shines into the pan. Catches bunches of fleas for practically nothing. I just refill the water once in awhile when it evaporates. Leave the light on day and night, they especially flock to it at night when it's the only light on. It really works!

5.0 out of 5 stars Victor M230 Ultimate Flea Trap June 15, 2012
By Monday L. Hunter
Amazon Verified Purchase
Length: 1:52 Mins
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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Victor Ultimate Flea Trap April 9, 2008
By Sab_Fan
works as advertised and works great. easy to set up, and fleas are drawn right to it, where they get caught and die. we bought three, because we needed one for each area that fleas were localized in. got 'em all.
one point, that should be made clear: this trap just gets the adult fleas; you still need to use another approach (shampoo, combing, etc.) to take care of the eggs and larvae that are on your pet. that is a separate issue; don't expect the Flea Trap to fix everything.
