Questions & Answers
The process of returning has begun. They didn't stick to the fridge, granite, metal, or wood, for example. I'm not sure why some reviewers claim that these are effective. I had these near my compost and trash bins and they didn't attract even ONE fruit fly indoors. I'm talking about completely useless.
There are 48 pieces in total, each with two sides.
Yes, they work well in raised beds outside, where I use them to grow tomatoes, peppers, and zucchini. Once a week, I swap them out.
Although they are sticky on both sides, I was dissatisfied with the product because it did not attract aphids as advertised.

by a long shot Last year, this had to be one of my best purchases. I purchased a tainted bag of potting soil that appeared to be infested with fungus gnat larvae - This is the first time I've ever had a problem with a houseplant. They multiplied at a rapid rate. Nothing worked, not even beer and apple cider vinegar traps. I tried leaving the problem plant pots outside in the freezing cold weather to see if that would help, but it didn't. See where the gnats are and which plant pots they congregate in; br>br>The positioning/placement is extremely important. After planting the arrow-shaped end in the soil, carefully pull the cover away from the middle where it connects - which is less difficult than removing it from the edges first - You don't want to accidentally remove any of the stickiness because it seems to attract the most critters. I discovered an 80-degree angle that was slightly downward. The angle of 85 degrees to the ground seemed to be the most effective, but that was a lot of information! However, for the best results, group a few together.
This is a good option that works well. It's quite effective. Say your goodbyes to 95% of the Ngats. There are still a few ngats flying around, but not nearly as many as there were previously. These fly traps are about 2 inches wide, which is a good size for potted plants, so I cut them in half. I believe I will have to change my soil at some point because the Ngats had already laid eggs in it before I set up these traps. By the way, organic indoor potting soil is not recommended. My Ngat infestation began at that time. Also, use caution when removing the paper covering from the adhesive; these traps are extremely sticky and will cling to your fingers! Haha.
When I tried to remove the glossy paper from one of the bases, it snapped. Then there's the task of getting them into the pots without them sticking to your fingers. br>br> After you've completed all of your tasks, you'll attempt to scrub the sticky, gooey adhesive from your hands. On day 2, after attempting to remove them with too many hand and dish soaps, I discovered that vigorously rubbing citrus peels on your hands can help. Finally, the product functions properly. br>br> It's satisfying to see all of the bugs (including a fly) clinging to the stickers.
I'm overjoyed that I came across these. The tiny fruit fly-like insects had started to appear about a month or so before. Some may approach my laptop screen, while others may approach the sink. They were quickly turning into a thorn in my side. They first appeared after we brought in some plants to help with the overcrowding. I was curious as to where they came from during the winter. I spent a lot of time researching ways to get rid of them. We're all aware that if a pest is left unattended for too long, it can become a problem. Someone shared photos of some of these sticky traps that had holes near the point where they were hung up. So that's how I went about it. I had to go out and buy a hole puncher because I couldn't find mine, but I punched a hole near the point and hung a couple over the kitchen sink by twisting them to the back side of a dish drainer rack that sits over the sink. Little black dots started to accumulate on them over the next few weeks. In the right back corner, I have a butterfly, and in the left back corner, I have a flower. For the past two weeks, I haven't seen even a single critter flying around my laptop or sink. Camper in a good mood br>I saw a review where someone said they didn't work, but I believe that person didn't give it enough time to work its magic before leaving the review, and results do take time (days/weeks). Patience is a virtue, and there is a reward on the horizon.
Simple- non-use vs. two-toxic sticky banners with two sides that can be staked in the ground Simply peel the bananas. Stake them after removing the white tape covering the sticky stuff. Gnats become trapped and are unable to flee. When the sticky is full, toss it in the trash and replace it with a new one. On several plants I'm growing indoors, hundreds of them stuck to them within a few days (I used two per plant). It does a lot to keep them in check. 48- The most economical option is to buy a pack.
Fruit flies kept appearing around the house, and I had no idea where they were coming from as a new houseplant owner until I moved my banana plant. Those plants, it turns out, are extremely gnat-attractive. All of a sudden, everything fell into place. The leaves had turned brown, were drooping, and the stalk was unhealthy. Put a few of these in the pot, along with some insecticide soap! The gnats began to die as the leaves began to heal. I made the mistake of believing it was "fixed" and stopped paying attention to it - It'll be a long journey because most of my plants (of which I currently have 100) have gnats. Make sure you don't repeat the same error. Continue until all of them have vanished.
If you didn't think you needed them before, you certainly do now. If you've ever wondered, "How do I put an end to the reign of tiny buzzing terrors?" this is the book for you. "This product is exactly what you've been looking for but didn't realize you were looking for. I've only had these for an hour and I'm already in love with them. They're super sticky, and they came with tiny shovels so you could dig a hole first, which is brilliant. I'll be purchasing more of these in the near future. It's made even better by the fact that you can choose from a variety of fun shapes. I would recommend it to anyone. For any type of plant. Paper clips can also be used to secure the pots to the hanger. It's just right.
These are very effective. These are very effective. I only gave it one star because the paper attached to the adhesion is stuck so well that removing it causes the paper to tear into multiple pieces. This does not happen with every trap, but it happened enough for me to note it in the review. In terms of adhesion, it's excellent. When attempting to peel off the multiple pieces of paper that cover the adhesive, the adhesive gets on your finger tips and will not wash off with soap and water. Instead, apply lotion and wipe with a papertowel.
