so simple, well, not quite
6 of 8 found this helpful Surely not a lot to be said about fly papers: they are .. just sticky and catch flies.
But:
The stickiness is a glue, and it can and does slowly dry out. This can lead to the reel of fly paper breaking as you pull it out. Sometimes when you can pull it out, there is comparatively little sticky left. So its good to try to buy recent stock, just one snag, there doesn't seem to be any way of finding out.
The tube can be made of plastic or cardboard, with the plastic tubed brands going to take longer to dry out. The end caps can also be cardboard or plastic.
Some of the cardboard end caps are waxed, which helps a little to preserve the stickiness. However, this does really keep the end caps firmly fixed in the tube, so best to break up the wax seal before pulling on the tag to get the paper out of the tube.
So, what to do for the best.
Rule 1 - choose your seller carefully.
Rule 2 - the quality of an expensive brand is possibly going to be better than a cheap one.
Rule 3 - but the expensive brand is going to cost a lot more.
Rule 4 - if you try to keep them for too long, they will dry out, its just a question of how quickly.
Rule 5 - if you have a lot of flies, don't expect fly papers to catch them all.
Rule 6 - consider other methods of catching flies, or even keeping them out of the house in the first place.
and finally Rule 7 - bear in mind that this is a very short review, and based on my own experience. But, you have to make up your own mind. So we also have a Rule 8 - they are very cheap really, so don't beat yourself up if you get a dud pack.
What do I do? I just buy one (or occasionally two) packs when I need them. Little and often, because trying to keep them for months is the biggest waste.
Good Luck.

Not to my taste
Its a decent enough story, well written, so far as it goes. But for me it suffers most from the ending, which was changed considerably for the film and very much for the better. The problem, for my taste, is that the book ends "all at sea". Essentially it is a section from a single long story split across several "separate" books. So if you want an actual ending, you will need to buy them all, or watch the film, or maybe just buy the last book whenever it is published.
