Yellow Sticky Traps For Insect - A5 Size

The  A5 Yellow Sticky Traps for insects by Green Revolution are eco-friendly, chemical-free pest monitoring and control cards designed for use across all farming systems and home gardens. Each A5 yellow sticky trap uses a non-toxic, long-lasting adhesive that attracts and captures flying insects through the natural visual lure of the bright yellow color. Widely recognised in Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programmes, A5 yellow sticky traps are one of the most practical, low-cost tools for detecting early pest build-up and reducing population pressure without any chemicals.

Key Features & Benefits of A5 Size Yellow Sticky Traps:

The yellow sticky traps cover both pest monitoring and direct population control across all crop types.

• Dual-Sided Coating: Both sides of each A5 yellow sticky trap are coated with a strong, non-drying glue that captures flying insects on contact.

• Natural Visual Lure: The bright yellow color visually attracts a broad range of sucking and flying pests, as pests are naturally drawn to yellow wavelengths.

• Weatherproof: A5 yellow sticky traps are built to hold up in rain, humidity, and high temperatures.

• Non-Toxic and Eco-Friendly: The adhesive is completely safe for humans, beneficial insects, birds, and the environment.

• Early Pest Detection: Regular monitoring using A5 yellow sticky traps helps farmers spot pest activity early.

• Reduces Chemical Spray Frequency: By physically trapping flying pests, A5 yellow sticky traps reduce pest pressure in the field, helping cut down on the number of insecticide sprays needed per season.

• Works Across All Crop Types: Effective for vegetables, fruit crops, flowers, cereals, and ornamentals, suitable for open fields, polyhouses, greenhouses, and nurseries.

How to Use A5 Size Yellow Sticky Traps:

1. Peel off the protective release paper from both sides of the A5 yellow sticky trap to expose the adhesive surface.

2. Attach a wire, string, or stake through the hole or top edge of the trap for hanging.

3. Hang the trap vertically just above or at the crop canopy height — this is the zone where most flying pests are active.

4. For field crops and vegetables, place A5 yellow sticky traps at a density of 6–8 traps per 1,000 sq. metres, spacing them evenly across the field with extra traps near field edges and pest hotspots.

5. For polyhouses and greenhouses, use 1 trap per 100 sq. metres and place additional traps near entry points, vents, and doors to intercept migrating pests.

6. Inspect traps every 7–10 days and count the number and type of insects caught to monitor pest activity levels.

7. Replace A5 yellow sticky traps when the adhesive surface is fully covered with insects or dust, or after 3–4 weeks in the field, whichever comes first.

8. Do not touch the adhesive surface with bare hands during installation — use gloves to keep the surface clean and effective for longer.

Safety Instructions:

• Handle A5 yellow sticky traps with gloves to avoid skin contact with the adhesive — glue can be difficult to remove from skin.

• Keep out of reach of children and pets — the adhesive surface can trap small animals if left unattended at ground level.

• Do not place traps near beehives or areas with high beneficial insect activity.

• Dispose of used traps by folding the adhesive sides inward before discarding — do not burn.

• Store unused traps in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain adhesive strength.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) — A5 Yellow Sticky Traps For Insects:

Q1. What insects do yellow sticky traps catch?

The A5 yellow sticky traps attract and capture a broad range of flying pests, including Whiteflies, Aphids, Thrips, Jassids, Leafminers, Leafhoppers, Fungus Gnats, and Mealybugs. The bright yellow color visually lures these pests onto the adhesive surface, where they are trapped and unable to escape.

Q2. How many yellow sticky traps do I need per acre?

For open field crops, use 40–50 traps per acre, spaced evenly with extra traps near field edges. For polyhouses and greenhouses, place approximately 1 trap per 100 sq. metres. Always add additional traps near entry points and pest hotspots for better early detection.

Q3. At what height should yellow sticky traps be placed?

Hang A5 yellow sticky traps at or just above the crop canopy height where flying pest activity is greatest. As the crop grows, adjust the trap height accordingly to keep it level with the upper plant zone throughout the season.

Q4. How often should I replace the sticky traps?

Replace A5 yellow sticky traps every 3–4 weeks in the field, or sooner if the adhesive surface becomes covered with insects or coated with dust. Inspect them every 7–10 days.

Q5. Are yellow sticky traps safe to use around food crops?

Yes. The A5 yellow sticky traps use a non-toxic, chemical-free adhesive that leaves no residue on the crop or soil. They are safe for use on all edible crops with no pre-harvest interval required, making them ideal for organic farming and integrated pest management (IPM) programmes.
