    Abstract: The present invention refers to a flying insect station (10) comprising:
    outer surfaces (26, 28) comprising a black color, a substantially reflective property, and a high gloss, wherein the outer surfaces (26, 28) provide depth to the flying insect station (10) and allow for the killing of flying insects staged thereon;
    an enclosed cavity (36) adjacent the outer surfaces (26, 28);
    an attractant held in the enclosed cavity (36);
    a vent (32) to allow a plume of attractant to surround the outer surfaces; and
    a spatiotemporal window (i) comprising said outer surfaces (26, 28) and said plume, (ii) located at an exterior of the three-dimensional flying insect station, and (iii) temporally measured from when a fly enters the spatiotemporal window and is killed;
    wherein the enclosed cavity (36) is defined by a frame (24) in which the attractant is held and through which the vent is defined; and
    wherein the black color, the substantially reflective property, and the attractant in combination create a synergistic effect greater than if used alone, said synergistic effect characterized by a knockdown of at least 88% of synanthropic flies that enter the spatiotemporal window.
