5 yellow sticky traps for fungus gnats and whiteflies

5 Yellow Sticky Traps for Fungus Gnats, Soil Flies, Whiteflies and Thrips

This set of 5 yellow sticky traps is a natural and ultra-effective solution against fungus gnats, soil flies, whiteflies and thrips. Measuring 8 x 13 cm and sticky on both sides, these traps are perfect for catching adult flying insects before they lay eggs, thereby limiting future infestations. Ideal for use indoors, in a greenhouse, or near sensitive plants.

Double Effectiveness with SF Nematodes for Optimal Control

For enhanced biological control, use these yellow sticky traps alongside Steinernema feltiae (SF) nematodes, which specifically target fungus gnat and soil fly larvae in the soil. While the nematodes work underground by eliminating larvae, these traps capture the adults, interrupting their reproductive cycle. This combination is particularly effective for fungus gnat infestations and protects your plants in a long-lasting and eco-friendly way.

How They Work and Optimal Trap Placement

Pest insects, such as fungus gnats and whiteflies, are attracted to the color yellow, which reminds them of food sources. Once attracted, they stick to both sides of the trap, which prevents reproduction and reduces pest populations. Place 1 to 2 traps per pot or near infested plants, and replace them as soon as they are saturated. This method ensures constant protection, ideal for indoor and greenhouse growing.

Natural and Eco-Friendly Solution for a Healthy Environment

These yellow sticky traps are free of chemicals, making them safe for the environment and for pets. They are particularly effective at protecting sensitive plants without disrupting pollinating insects. Their targeted action on harmful flying insects helps maintain a healthy growing environment by controlling populations of fungus gnats, soil flies, and other plant pests.

Technical Specifications and Key Benefits

• Optimal dimensions: 8 x 13 cm, with double-sided adhesive for maximum capture.
• Attractive yellow color for fungus gnats, whiteflies, thrips, and soil flies.
• Ideal complement to SF nematodes for complete biological control against soil and leaf pests.
• Prevents pest insects from reproducing by capturing adults.
• Easy to install in pots, on plants, or near infested areas.
• Replace once saturated for continuous effectiveness.

Instructions for Best Results

Remove the protective film from each side of the trap and place it in pots or hang it near infested plants. Depending on the level of infestation, use 1 to 2 traps per pot. Check each trap regularly and replace it as soon as it is saturated with insects. This trapping method can be used year-round indoors and in greenhouses, especially for vegetable crops, houseplants, and seedlings.

Precautions and Trap Storage

Traps should be stored in a cool, dry place before use to ensure maximum effectiveness. Install them out of reach of children and pets, even though they contain no chemicals. Replace traps as soon as they are full to prevent pests from multiplying.

Why Choose Yellow Sticky Traps for Fungus Gnats and Whiteflies?

By choosing these yellow sticky traps, you’re choosing a simple and powerful biological control method against harmful flying insects. Using them in combination with SF nematodes is the ideal option to effectively control populations of fungus gnats, soil flies, and thrips without disrupting the balance of your growing environment.
