ARBICO Organics® Yellow Insect Traps

This Durable And Effective Sticky Trap Makes Insect Pest Control And Monitoring Super-Easy!

Finding out which pest insects are eating your plants is the first step in any Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program and this type of sticky trap is the go-to choice for monitoring and control. ARBICO Organics Yellow Pest Traps work as a visual attractant for a wide range of crawling and flying insect pests. They are drawn in by the bright color and become hopelessly stuck. Once they are trapped, the 5" x 7" gridded surface makes it easy to count just how many have landed and been captured on the trap. The sticky surface not only eliminates adult pests caught there, it prevents them from reproducing and creating more to deal with. There is a very low risk to beneficial organisms, but some may become caught by accident. Place these traps inside or out; you can even cut them to form a custom shape for a particular need. Results could vary due to trap placement, seasonal weather variations, size of pest populations present before installing traps, presence and numbers of natural pest predators, extreme weather, chemical spray contamination as well as disruption and/or damage due human or other interference.

The adhesive on these traps in non-toxic, but make every attempt to keep them away from children and pets as they will easily stick to hair and eyelashes. If this does happen, use soap and water to clean it up. Some people also use vegetable or baby oil to remove adhesive.

Trap Dimensions: 5" x 7"

great safe insect control

May 27, 2022 | By JoeInPhilly

I've used yellow sticky boards to control fungus gnats and aphids. But the ones from Arbico are a heavier stock, double sided, and more durable than others I have found in stores. They're priced right, and more effective due to being sticky on both sides.

These Work Great!!!

The Yellow Traps have really knocked down our whitefly population and it attracts flies and other insects. The sad thing for me is it also catches ladybugs and bees - not a lot of them, but I wish it didn't catch any at all. I have managed to save a few when they land on their feet, I can use my exacto knife and run it under their legs carefully and scoot them off the sticky part, but you have to do this in one quick swipe or they stick in another place. If they land on their back, they have already torn their wings off. They seem to be okay if you can make this work. I don't know for sure, but I hope it saves their lives. I guess it's the cost of trying to get rid of the bad insects.

Owner Response: Great point Martha. They are very sticky and also do occasionally catch other flying insects unintentionally.

Works as designed

I've used sticky traps for years from various manufacturers as a retired research technician we tried all kinds, some with pheromones and others just colors. The Cuban anoles don't stand a chance of escaping these cards. So I need to build a cage to keep them from the buffet or becoming part of the buffet. I purchased yellow and blue sticky cards, white flies, and thrips mainly. The yellow had white flies in minutes as I had disturbed the branches.

Awesome

This is an excellent product. It is very sticky and caught lots of bugs fast . I really like this. Product and I will be ordering more.

Gnat traps

Product ordering and delivery process was good. Unfortunately not one gnat was caught by the sticky squares. It could be because I have no plants, they are coming out of the air vent. I live in a high rise apartment.

works good
