Gideal 20-Pack Dual-Sided Yellow Sticky Traps for Flying Plant Insect Such as Fungus Gnats, Whiteflies, Aphids, Leafminers,Thrips - (6x8 Inches, Included 20pcs Twist Ties)

They work. Plain and simple. But be aware that if wind blows one of these down and a bird is unfortunate enough to land on it? They can't get off!! A poor bird landed on mine and he was stuck for who knows how long!! He tore his tail feathers off trying to get off and they bled, I got him off easy enough, managed to unruffle his wing feathers good enough and he was able to fly away but I was horrified by his pain and anguish. I still feel terrible that I was unaware these are sticky enough to trap a bird. I had secured one to a feed a cage with the twist ties but when the blew it twisted the board around so many times it broke away and landed on the grass under my bird feeder. I will secure these differently from now on because the are a danger to small animals. That was certainly the last thing I expected to see. Update, I finally used my big block bird feeder box to hang these safely where they lose no danger to the birds or other small wildlife. They can't blow down now! We had 70 mile an hour winds yesterday. That's unusual, the normal storm winds blew them off the ties last time. It was heartbreaking to see that little bird stuck on these, I couldn't risk that again. These work!

We tried everything. Red wine (waste of good wine), vinegar (house smelled like a pickle factory), Soapy water (sure hope that wasn't the cause of the dogs intestinal issues on the white carpet!) and nothing worked. Finally did a little more research and found these. Three days since I've put them out and the numbers are dropping fast (no, these ARE NOT the cure for the pandemic)! We knew that the gnats were in the house plants, so that's where we put them. The 20 sheets that you get are really big and yellow, 8" x 8". We have 20 houseplants and using a whole sheet would be overkill. Plus, it would make our house look like a big caution zone. As you can see from the picture, I cut each sheet into nine sections and used some spare irrigation stakes to put them in the plant. Whole process took me less than 30 minutes. They were easy to cut, easy to peel the paper off the back and here's the greatest part . . . I had my first gnat caught within 15 minutes! They give you a few spikes that will hold a sheet, and a whole bunch of twist ties to use with the hole cut into the top, middle of each sheet if you want to use them whole. The review photo is after three days, and many of the other traps look the same. For under $10 bucks, I have a really big supply. Planning to use them in my vegetable garden this summer. Hope they work as well. Great product, great price, just hit the buy button already!

Works great with fly, but not with croaches

These were bigger than expected. Worked like a charm on my thrips invasion. Not wild about the yellow color, but it did keep my hands clear of getting sticky when pruning my plants. Easy install, no smell and very bright. Use outdoor and indoor. Rain doesn’t bother the stickiness.

I have pretty mixed feelings on this product so far. I mainly purchased them for thrips, which have been destroying my poor monstera minima! I also have plants in a bedroom that have had gnats. The gnats are more of an annoyance than a pest as they haven’t seemed to affect any of my plants’ health so far. Unfortunately for my monstera and other living room plants, the traps have caught very little, if anything. However, they have been wildly successful for the gnats in the bedroom, they even caught a whole fly! I put up both yellow and blue traps to see what would be more effective and the yellow seems to be working better, although I also put more of the yellow out too. In terms of ease of use, I was hoping I’d just be able to stick them directly to my planters/pots, but quickly found they were falling off, so I secured them with some small binder clips instead. They are not as sticky as the blue traps I bought, which are coated in a thick gelatinous glue that you can see with you eyes. These are more of a sticker and are easier to work with since the glue isn’t as strong or plentiful. But they still work to catch bugs, so that’s all that matters! Mine came with a couple holders for the sheets, which worked out okay, except it’s pretty hard to get the traps into them since they’re sticky, and once they are in, the traps tend to fold over on themselves if they’re put the long way in. These are the first traps of this kind I’ve gotten, so I can’t compare them to other brands. In my experience, they work well enough for gnats but not at all for thrips. I’ll have to keep spraying my monstera down for now.

Whiteflies. If you ever had them on your potted plants you know the scourge they are. And how getting rid of them can be a pain because they live underneath the leaves. These sheets are heavy and sticky as heck. And yellooooow as the critters love that color. I cut them in half and placed them on the supplied holders as well as stapled some to my own sticks. Put those in the plant pots at an angle so that one side of the card was facing up a little, one side facing down a little. Started to trap the little varmints right away. It's slow and methodical with some pests. A fight of attrition sort of. I did treat my potted plants with insecticidal soap as well. A couple weeks later the upwards facing sides had lost most of their stickiness due to days and days of torrential rain followed by blistering sun.But by then they had done their murderous job. However the downward side is still sticky enough a couple weeks later and is still doing its job. Over all my plants are happier, even though they aren't devoid completely of these pests. Definitely a weapon needed in your arsenal. Nicely packaged with film over the sticky stuff. Inexpensive enough if you cut them in half unless you are trying to cover a very large area and need them full size. And it's passive and not toxic as far as I know.

Really attracts the little flying bugs. Package did not come with the twist ties it states it would.
