My experience is no.
I left for vacation last summer and when I returned my apartment was filled with flies. Remembering the old saying "You catch more flies with honey than you do with vinegar" I put out dishes of honey throughout my home hoping that some would land and become hopelessly entangled.
This was not the case. Though the place was absolutely swarming with flies, not a single one would ever go near the honey. I had to go and buy poisons to get rid of them.
Perhaps its instinctive as bees would almost certainly kill any would-be looting insects or perhaps its chemical and the honey contains something to warn other insects away. I don't know. I do know that they avoided it and landed on any and everything else including myself.
