10 Pk Camel Cricket/Roach/Scorpion Sticky Traps

These traps are perfect for catching the annoying cave crickets that suddenly started to appear in my basement last year. They out compete the mice by going for the peanut butter or anything else I apply to my old fashioned mouse traps so that the traps are rendered useless for their intended purpose of trapping mice. The crickets would just eat away the peanut butter without setting the traps of course. Luckily there were no mice last year for me but if they are around this winter at least the mouse traps stand a chance of having food to attract catch them instead of the crickets.

These traps do a great job although I will suggest not refrigerating them before using. It may be convenient and less likely to stick to your fingers, but that comes at the cost of not sticking to pests. Ive tried cooling them before just to see a roach walk straight through it or lightly stick and hobble off the trap. Just wash your hands with warm water and the goo should come off.

I should have looked at the size of these traps as they're way too small. The odds of any fly choosing to land on one are low.But I did luck out and watch two different flies who beat the odds and actually landed on the sticky side of a trap... only to briefly struggle, pop free and happily fly away. And yes, they landed on the sticky side.Not much of a trap.Don't know once you peel the protective cover off a trap how you return it... well, you can't. It would be a mess to do that.So, the only good thing about these is they're cheap.Lesson learned, however... and I'll pass that lesson on to you all.Don't buy this product unless you have a few bucks to burn.

I love using these on my windowsill to catch bugs since the window (the sunlight rather) seems to be a magnet. These traps don't have any chemical to attract bugs but for me they've caught tiny flies, carpet beetles, a spider, and even a centipede! I really don't like bugs so this just makes it so much more convenient and I don't have to go bug hunting when I come across something crawling. The strips are clear so they're not an eyesore and you just have to be careful when peeling the backing off the traps. The glue is pretty sticky if you get it on you, but it's not a big deal that's how sticky traps are supposed to be.

They are much smaller than I expected. They work great!

I kept these in the fridge for several days before using because I had to move bookcases to properly place them. I'm glad I did because the backs peeled off like a dream and they were super easy to put in place.

Even though they did manage to catch a cricket (traps have been out for about a week), I have to rate it low because of how impossible they are to use without getting the substance on your hands. It's impossible to pull the backing off without getting at least SOME of the stick on you, and once that happens, have fun spending the next 20 minutes scrubbing your skin off in the bathroom. I wish there was more room on the trap to grab and apply leverage when trying to peel off adhesive.

Caught couple of crickets already. Only issues: is not easy to pull off paper and is invisible when placed, so can easily step on if not aware of placement.
