Green Revolution Yellow And Blue Sticky Traps

The Green Revolution yellow and blue sticky traps are A4-size eco-friendly fly sticky traps designed for monitoring and mass-trapping flying pests in farms, gardens, polyhouses, and greenhouses. Each pack contains 25 sheets of A4 of standard cut-size cardboard, coated on both sides with a strong, non-drying, non-toxic adhesive. The yellow sticky cards attract whiteflies, aphids, leaf hoppers, leaf miners, and fungus gnats, while the blue sticky cards target thrips and leaf miners. These blue and yellow sticky traps are chemical-free, safe for beneficial insects, and fit seamlessly into IPM and organic farming programs across vegetable, flower, and fruit crops.

Key Features and Benefits:

• Two Colours, Two Roles: The yellow and blue sticky traps work together — yellow attracts a wide range of sap-suckers, while blue specifically targets thrips and leaf miners.

• A4 Standard Size: Each card measures 12 × 8 inches (200mm × 300mm), giving a wide trapping surface that's easy to handle and hang in any farm setting.

• Non-Toxic, Non-Drying Glue: The yellow and blue sticky traps use a strong, eco-friendly adhesive that does not dry out, holding pests securely for weeks.

• Both-Sided Coating: Both sides of each sticky card are coated with adhesive, doubling the active trapping area per sheet.

• 25 Sheets per Pack: Each pack of yellow and blue sticky traps comes with 25 cards, enough to cover a typical small farm, polyhouse, or kitchen garden.

• Chemical-Free Pest Control: The blue and yellow sticky traps cut down on insecticide use while keeping fields and disease-carrying pests in check.

How to Use:

• Open the pack of yellow and blue sticky traps carefully and remove the required number of sheets — typically 25 per acre, distributed evenly across the field.

• Wear gloves to avoid getting the strong adhesive on your hands or clothing while peeling off the release paper.

• Peel off the release paper to expose the sticky surface on both sides of each fly sticky trap card.

• For yellow cards, place them along crop rows at canopy height to attract whitefly, aphids, leaf hoppers, leaf miners, and fungus gnats from a distance.

• For blue cards, place them specifically in thrips-prone areas like the centre of the polyhouse or near vent openings.

• Hang the yellow and blue sticky traps using the supplied wire or twine, fixing them to bamboo poles, plant stakes, or trellis wires.

• Keep the cards 20 to 40 cm above the top of the crop canopy and raise them as the crop grows.

• Replace the blue and yellow sticky traps once the surface becomes saturated with trapped pests, dust, or pollen — usually every 2 to 4 weeks of active field use.

Safety Instructions:

• Wear gloves while handling the yellow and blue sticky traps, since the strong, non-drying adhesive sticks firmly to skin, hair, and clothes on contact.

• Keep the sticky traps out of reach of children and pets; accidental contact with the wet glue is hard to clean and best avoided.

• If glue sticks to skin or fabric, use vegetable oil or kerosene to dissolve the adhesive, then wash with soap and warm water.

• Avoid placing the yellow and blue sticky traps near beneficial-insect release zones such as honeybee colonies, ladybug, or biocontrol release points.

• Do not install the fly sticky traps directly under heavy rain or sprinkler spray; wet conditions reduce stickiness and shorten card life.

• Dispose of used cards in a sealed plastic bag through proper waste channels; never burn the trapped sheets in open fields.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

Q1. What is the difference between yellow and blue sticky traps?

The yellow and blue sticky traps in this pack each target different pest groups. Yellow cards attract a broad range of flying pests like whiteflies, aphids, leaf hoppers, leaf miners, and fungus gnats, while blue cards are specifically tuned to draw in thrips, leafminers, and tea mosquito bugs.

Q2. How many fly sticky traps are needed per acre?

For general monitoring of flying pests, install 25 fly sticky traps per acre, spaced evenly across the field. For heavy infestations or mass-trapping in polyhouses, increase the density to 40 or even 50 traps per acre at known pest-entry points and along borders.

Q3. At what height should the yellow and blue sticky traps be hung?

Hang the yellow and blue sticky traps about 20 to 40 cm above the top of the crop canopy. As the crop grows, raise the trap height along with it. This keeps the trap in the natural flight path of flying pests at every growth stage.

Q4. How often should the blue and yellow sticky traps be replaced?

Inspect the blue and yellow sticky traps every 7 to 10 days. Replace each card when the surface is saturated with dead pests, dust, or pollen, or when the adhesive loses its tackiness. In normal field conditions, this happens every 2 to 4 weeks of active use.

Q5. Can the Green Revolution yellow and blue sticky traps be used in organic farming?

Yes, the Green Revolution yellow and blue sticky traps fit perfectly into organic farming and IPM programs. The traps contain no chemical pesticide, only a non-toxic adhesive on cardboard, making them safe for certified organic produce and chemical-free vegetable cultivation.
