Apologies for the misrepresentation of FLYTRAP. My excuse is that I penned in FLY once I had the F and the Y. I then read that as insect in the wordplay and considered that the answer was a component, re FLYWHEEL. Nothing came to mind but once I had the other down answers I filled in TRAP, saw that it fitted the definition but failed to reinterpret the word play fully!

Other old cities: Thebes gets used occasionally. “Last month”: can be the old commercial correspondence “ult(imo)” too. Got 15 without understanding the wordplay – I’d say getting TONICS from “boosts” was quite difficult.
