Harris Potted Plant Insect Traps for Gnats, Aphids, Whiteflies and More (30 Traps, 7 Stakes)

I bought these for the potted plants I keep outside in warm months and bring inside for winter. Even though I hose the plants and the pots down, little bugs seem to survive and then thrive in my house while snacking on my plants. These sticky traps can be unobtrusive while snagging pests. I was unpleasantly surprised at how many gnats were caught. I like the small size of the sticky trap so I can justify switching them out for new stickers once a handful of pests are stuck. No one wants to keep the dead bugs on display for very long.

If you THINK you have a gnat problem, throw a couple of these in your pots and discover how much you & Pig Pen have in common.They are SUPER sticky - goopy & gross. The sticks break very easily.But - they catch the gnats.

I have a lot of house plants. Fungus gnats appear more often than I like. I have tried many different chemical approaches to eliminate them. Those helped, but never got rid of them completely. I have been using these insect traps for over a year now and they really work. Very happy with results.

I put these in my potted plants around my house. You can use them as they come, but I like to cut them length wise and make them go even further. They are very easy to use and really work for any thing that gets on them. Even house flys. At first I was changing them a minimum of once a week ( gnats were really bad) these took care of them in a few weeks. Then I changed them about every 10 days.After awhile I noticed there were no fruit flys on them but I left them in the pots. In a few more weeks I started noticing tiny fruit flys ( hatched baby’s living in the soil) but since the sticks were still there they were still working.The only down side is if you get to close to them you will stick to them. You also must be careful not to let the sticks come in contact with the plant leaves as that will tear the them.

Easy product to use the only thing I would change is only using or having one side be sticky. I’ve had to pull it off my plants if the sticky side is facing my plant and they don’t like that.

Upside: These traps do work and everything that comes in contact with them sticks. LOTS of mosquitoes getting are being trapped, as well as some small other small insects. Still to be seen if they catch all of the insects that have been eating my basil and mint.I researched this type of insect trap online and the feedback I found was that honey bees are not attracted to the traps. But sadly, less than 24 hours after putting out a few traps on non-flowering plants, I found a honey bee stuck to one. I did ask a question about bees on this forum and the manufacturer did not respond.Aside from the huge down-side of catching honey bees, these strips are very hard to set up because there is no way to handle them without touching the sticky stuff. The sticky side does not have even a small space of non-sticky to allow handling, and the protective paper is pretty hard to peel off so I ended up still getting the sticky stuff on me.I'll try for a few more days, but if another bee gets trapped I'm tossing them.

No one believed these would “work!” I love fly paper and thought these would be an environmental alternative. I catch fruit flies, spiders, mosquitos, etc.Too bad they don’t work on those darn mealy bugs!Downside… curious people get stuck, too!!

I have previously used these traps. They attract the nasty little mildew gnars that come in the soil of my houseplants. I unfortunately purchased miracle grow potting soil and the soil was breeding these. These traps work well. They are small enough to hide in the houseplants. They’re a bit tricky to put on the holder but not hard to master.

Works well.

Excellent pour les petits moucherons dans les plantes.
