20-Pack Fruit Fly Trap, Yellow Sticky Gnat Traps Killer for Indoor/Outdoor Flying Plant Insect Like Fungus Gnats, Whiteflies, Aphids, Leaf Miners - 6x8 in, Twist Ties Included

If you have orchids or other indoor plants, you likely have experienced fungus gnats. They are inert but annoying, just like fruit flies, but challenging to get rid of once you get them. I have lots of indoor plants, including orchids and bamboo. I wanted to find a non-chemical solution to my mild gnat problem. They love the moisture, but I'm not about to restrict hydration to my plants. I researched a few solutions and found this inexpensive, easy-to-use, super sticky set of yellow papers. Each sheet is generous in size and can be trimmed down for your needs. They do include sticks, but I don't bother with them. Instead, I trim two small rectangles and strategically place them close to the plants most affected by the gnats. They are sticky on both sides, so I can simply adhere them to the backside of the pot or the stand they are on. You don't notice them unless you are looking for them. I think the papers are treated with something that lures the gnats to them, but again, it seems far safer than anything you'd likely have to use to treat gnats. After a few days, you'll have a cluster of dead gnats, and you'll notice less and less over time. Toss the old sheet and replace it as often as needed. I just leave them there for good measure and replace them when I notice any bugs accumulating. I've only used a couple of sheets so far. This would be more than a year's worth or more for me. Obviously, the use will vary depending on the environment, the types of plants, the amount of moisture, and the infestation.

These yellow sticky (fly traps) are amazingly effective! Originally purchased to hang in apple and plumb trees to help prevent fruit fly and apple moths. I quickly learned they actually attract and catch a large variety of flying insects/bugs. I now hang them around the garden, yard, and trees. I am continually surprised at how well they work, and the diverse variety of insects caught. The pictures show how effective they are, and rain does not reduce their effectiveness. I highly recommend these.

These worked like advertised. Easy to assemble, peel and hang. No issues with packaging. Attracted lots of white flies and other pests on my lemon tree. The 4 stars and not 5 stars is because unfortunately, 2 baby lizards were glued to it trying to eat a moth that was stuck to it. I was able to save one lizard and used olive oil to remove it from the sticky trap. It also attracted bees and butterflies, so I have decided to stop using them. But if you have a problem, this will capture the pests, I’m not sure it’s a solution to actually get rid of them permanently

I spent over $250 trying other recommended methods to conquer a gnat infestation. Then I found these yellow sticky papers and discovered this was all I needed the whole time. This product is so effective at trapping those little menaces that I no longer need to do vinegar bowls, apple traps or spend all my free time hunting them down and spraying them with a Dawn and water mixture. These sheets work wonders!

I have no idea why this product isn't a solid 5 stars across the board. It may have something to do with the included sticks but I never use those anyhow. I use the included twist ties and if I run out of those I use the roll that came with my plant support stakes. You can order the same roll by itself on here for 3 bucks. Now it would be nice if this company simply put a 2" or 3" slit on one end of the sticks. However, the sticky traps are so good and cheap, I personally can easily look over that. For outside purposes especially, I don't really care for the sticky traps with the cute designs, that you stick directly in the soil, that you see being sold all over Amazon. With rain it seems like they get more dirt on them than anything else, wasting at least 50" of the sticky surface. They might do ok with indoor house plants, but definitely not exposed outside. That's why I love these! I make sure I hang them at least a couple inches from the soil. I used these last summer also. So this is a repurchase. They were great then and they're great now. I live in Ohio and I moved last February, just a couple miles away, and the ones I had put out the previous June WERE STILL STICKY! Of course I threw them away when I moved because they were loaded with dead bugs, especially fungus gnats. I was hesitant on putting the new ones out when I did yesterday, because I knew storms were going to be rolling in any minute. So right after putting them out it stormed for several hours. Well, as you can see in the picture, the storms didn't mess them up at all. They started catching insects before I could even put another one out and continued to catch them all evening and night, even through the storms! These will be my go to every year! Amazing product with an amazing price! Worth their weight in gold!

Place it well and don't forget that it is "Double Sided"...them flies really stick to it...really works. Will buy again for next season...hopefully the quality don't diminish.

These work well and stay sticky for quite a long time. I am using them against fungus gnats. They don't eliminate the problem completely on their own (They don't claim that they will), but they've vastly cut down on the number of adults flying around without the use of poison. Now that I've been able to track down a biological control method, I'm going to try using them together. Attaching the sheets to the provided stakes is straightforward, but requires a bit of dexterity, since the sheets will (obviously) try to stick to you. This is a very minor issue, though.

As usual, we brought some of our plants we keep outside, inside for the winter. This year a lovely batch of little black flies came in with them and created a full infestation in the house that spread to all of our other plants. >:( I purchased these after reading a bunch of reviews and I am so glad I did!! Based on some other reviewer's suggestions I cut each sticky 'card' into three strips and pushed wooden skewers through each strip. I bought the skewers at a dollar store so they were cheap. Once assembled, they looked like a yellow C-shape on a stick. After putting a strip on a skewer, I carefully peeled off the protective sheets on both sides. It's a bit of a pain but worth it!! I placed one of my "death- sticks" in each plant pot and multiple ones in our bigger plant pots (where their home base was). I even placed a death-stick in a container in each of our bathrooms. Those new little friends of your's like to hang out in drains too so you'll likely find them in your bathroom(s). I also took some of the strips, peeled one side and put them face up on our window sills. They like windows too. Within hours of the first application the strips (especially the ones in the big pots) were spotted like I had covered them with pepper! I would leave them for a week and then replace them every weekend. These little buggers lay A LOT of eggs in soil and drains so you will need patience to rid yourself of them. I've had death-sticks in the plants since the infestation started (4 months ago) and haven't seen a fly in at least a few weeks. I'm going to leave some sticks in the big pots over the whole winter to ensure I got them all. So... Cut the sticky cards into strips (with the protective paper on) to get the most out of them, put them on cheap wooden skewers, put them in your pots and bathrooms, replace them once a week (or if full), be patient and good luck!!

One pack seems to have lasted forever, but honestly they are terrific. There were so many fruit flies I could not stand them anymore so I put up the paper and the result was wonderful. See above pictures.

I have a 20 year old hibiscus tree that comes inside during the winter. /every year no matter how I spray, white flies attack. I have used this type of product before and it works.

good one. i think it put the beasts far away, like they feel it. thank you.
