Questions & Answers
Two of my cats had one stuck to their tails; if you hold their fur down and pull on a knot, you can remove it without hurting them. It won't hurt if you hold it down first because it'll stick to you like tape.
No, they are not reusable once they become dirty or infested with bugs.
Yes, I believe it was made up of half flowers and half butterflies. Stickiness is very good! Only use this product indoors - It has the ability to adhere to the feathers of birds!
I suppose you could punch a hole in one and hang it up? They are attracted to the smell of plants, so they work well around them.

I'm not going to show you how many buggies have been stuck to this because it's revolting. It is, without a doubt, sticky. Still, keep these two points in mind: 1. br>br> It doesn't attract the larger black flies, but it does attract gnats and fruit flies. 2. br>br>1. br>br>br>br>br>br This doesn't address the underlying issue. Those tiny guys' eggs hatch quickly and remain in the ground. More will arrive, and your plant will become an eyesore as a result of the fact that not all will fly into it, no matter how many arrive. In a house plant, it appears to be quite unappealing. Hundreds of bugs will be clinging to this object, and eggs will continue to be laid and, presumably, hatch. br>br>According to some online research, you must place a bunch of small rocks or pebbles on top of the soil and smother it in order for the eggs to die and no more to be laid; this, combined with this sticky guy, should suffice. The rocks will come in handy. I finally succeeded when I tried it with rocks.
I have a lot of gnats in my house. There wasn't a single one of them who was caught by this. They're flying right past that stupid yellow thing and right into my face as I type this.
This product is not for anyone who lives in an area where there are lizards, butterflies, or any other insect that you don't want to stick to this adhesive because they will die. Because I adore lizards and was heartbroken when they couldn't free themselves from this product, I strongly advise anyone concerned about other reptiles or insects to avoid using it.
Simply peel off the front and back papers (carefully, as they are very sticky) and place them where you need them. I put the traps' bases in coffee mugs filled with dry rice. That way, I'd be able to use them on any surface (counter, window ledges, etc. ).
I live in Pennsylvania, and every summer I bring all of my indoor plants outside. Then, in the fall, I bring them back inside, where they are always accompanied by a few small bugs, despite the fact that I rinse them off before bringing them in. Now I'm aware of how many people spend the winter in my home. Oh, no. The images are self-explanatory.
I looked for other reviews to see if anyone else had mentioned it, and I only found two that did, but I believe it's important for everyone to be aware of this when using this product: small birds can get caught in them if used outdoors. While it only caught about two fruit flies (out of hundreds on my plants), it did catch the wing of a small finch, which I keep outside my apartment. He was completely stuck, poor little guy. I used oil to remove it from him, but I'm not sure if his wing is broken or if he'll be able to remove the oil because it happened in the middle of the night and he scurried away. I'm in a terrible mood, and I really wish this product had a big red warning label on the front that everyone could see. Obviously, I threw them all out after this happened.
These Fungus Gnat traps are a force to be reckoned with! There were gnats trapped in the adhesive before I finished setting up the first trap, which, while it may reflect poorly on my gardening skills, is a great example of how well these work! They're still trapping gnats two weeks later, with a lot of them trapped! Users should be advised: br>br> The traps in the shape of flowers are easy to use: Starting at the'stem,' carefully peel the protective film away from the bottom. The ones in the shape of butterflies are a little trickier: Otherwise, the film might tear if you peel from the stem and both wingtips at the bottom at the same time. Putting it all together: br>br> When I made sure that the top of the spade anchor was level with the soil, I got the best results. I had to prepare ahead of time. To do so, make a hole in the ground. In addition: br>br> These are a LOT of fun to play with. Handle with care, either from the spade or along the edges. If you're not careful, your fingers will stick to the adhesive (you can pull them free, but it'll be difficult). (Real buyer, not compensated for my review. ) br>br>I would highly recommend this product.
These devices are effective: I dislike the butterfly shape because it is difficult for me to peel the paper off of them. The traps in the shape of a starburst are much more popular. Aside from that, they do a good job. They eventually get covered by the next generation of fungus gnats, and I have to replace them. Since I started using them, the number of gnats has drastically decreased. Because I have a lot of indoor plants, fungus gnat eggs are frequently found in the soil when I buy them. Gnats were always present before I started using these traps. I no longer see one on a regular basis. br>br>I'd tried a couple of YouTube home remedies that had failed miserably. Vinegar and honey, for example, are foul-smelling concoctions that I keep around the house. Yuck! It only fooled a few gnats. Friends and neighbors, on the other hand, were drawn to the stinky cups with a few bugs floating in them. I'm overjoyed that I discovered these.
