Summit® Sticky Traps are an effective method for controlling insect pests on houseplants. These bright yellow sticky traps attract and capture flying insects such as fungus gnats, whiteflies, aphids, and thrips. When staked in the soil or hung from the plants, the bright yellow color is an irresistible attractant to these insect pests. Once they land on the stake, there is no escape. Replace the traps in 90 days or when covered in insects.
The use of Summit® Sticky Traps offers several advantages:
They are non-toxic and eliminate the need for chemical pesticides, making them safe for households with children and pets.
Summit® Sticky Traps are easy to use and maintain. Regularly monitoring the traps allows you to assess the severity of the infestation and take appropriate action.
Summit® Sticky Traps also serve as an early warning system, enabling you to detect pests before they cause damage.
By combining Summit® Sticky Traps with other integrated pest management techniques like proper watering and organic insecticides, you can effectively control pests while minimizing environmental impact.
Incorporating Summit® Sticky Traps into your houseplant care routine provides a visual and non-toxic solution to monitor and capture flying insect pests. These traps help prevent infestations from spreading, reducing the need for chemical interventions. By strategically positioning the traps and combining them with other pest management strategies, you can maintain healthy and thriving houseplants while ensuring a greener approach to pest control.
