Our TrapStiks do not use poisons or killing agents to kill insects. Instead, they rely on a highly effective visual lure (the pixelated pattern on the cardboard surface overlaid with glue) to attract the insect to the glue surface.
Our Wasp, Carpenter Bee, and Deck and Patio Fly TrapStik are intended for OUTDOOR USE. These TrapStiks control the targeted insect and keep them from entering your home or living space. We recommend hanging the trap near evidence of activity of the targeted insect.
Good Locations for the Deck and Patio Fly TrapStik:
- Anywhere you have a biting fly problem
- Patios
- Decks
- Water features
- Barns
- A dog run or kennel
Avoid hanging TrapStiks where birds or other wildlife activity happens, and where children or pets may come in contact with the adhesive.
