Yellow Glue Trap: Natural Protection Against Fruit Flies and Winged Aphids

The Maluttebio yellow glue trap is an eco-friendly and effective solution to protect your fruit trees from fruit flies (such as the Mediterranean fruit fly or cherry fruit fly) and winged aphids.

This trap stands out with its double-sided sticky surface, its attractive yellow color, and its included metal fasteners, ensuring quick installation and maximum efficiency. Suitable for outdoor use in orchards, vegetable gardens, or greenhouses, it seamlessly integrates into a natural gardening approach.

When and Why Use a Yellow Glue Trap?

Install this trap as soon as the first flights of fruit flies or winged aphids appear, typically in spring, to intercept pests before they lay eggs. It is particularly useful for protecting your fruit harvests (apples, cherries, peaches, etc.) and maintaining the health of your fruit trees.

The yellow glue trap is also effective for monitoring and reducing winged aphid populations, which can proliferate rapidly and weaken your plants. Its preventive use limits damage and avoids the use of chemical treatments.

Biology and life cycle

How Does the Yellow Glue Trap Work?

The yellow glue trap works through visual and mechanical attraction. Its yellow color naturally attracts fruit flies and winged aphids, which are sensitive to this hue mimicking young leaves and flowers. Once attracted, the insects get immobilized on the two sticky sides, ensuring effective and lasting capture.

To maximize its effectiveness, you can combine the trap with a specific pheromone (such as those targeting the Mediterranean fruit fly or cherry fruit fly). The pheromone selectively attracts adult males or females, thereby enhancing the trap’s attractiveness. This combination significantly reduces egg-laying and limits damage to your harvests.

The glue used is long-lasting and resists weather conditions, ensuring continuous protection even in hot or humid weather. Its mechanical action, without pesticides, respects the environment and beneficial garden insects.

Instructions: Installation and Usage

Remove the protective films from both sticky sides of the yellow glue trap.

Optionally, attach a pheromone capsule to the center of the plate to enhance attractiveness (if used).

Hang the trap vertically in the tree using the provided metal fasteners, avoiding horizontal placement or direct attachment to branches.

Maintain an approximate distance of 2 meters between traps for optimal coverage.

Replace the trap when the sticky surface is saturated with insects or loses adhesiveness.

In case of accidental contact with the glue, clean with vegetable oil before washing with soapy water.

How many traps should be installed per fruit tree?

Hang them vertically about 2 meters apart to avoid overlapping.

Should I use a pheromone with the yellow glue trap?

Using a pheromone is optional but recommended to enhance the trap’s effectiveness, especially against fruit flies like the Mediterranean fruit fly or cherry fruit fly. The pheromone specifically attracts adults, while the glue ensures their capture. For aphids, the trap alone is usually sufficient.

How do I know when to replace a yellow glue trap?

A less effective sticky surface reduces attractiveness and capture of pests. Regularly check the condition of the traps, especially during periods of high fly or aphid activity.

Can this trap be used in a greenhouse or indoors?

The yellow glue trap is designed for outdoor use (orchard, vegetable garden, ventilated greenhouse). Avoid using it indoors or in non-ventilated greenhouses near sensitive plants, as the glue may accidentally stick to other beneficial insects or leaves. Prefer outdoor installation for optimal effectiveness.
