Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps are double-sided adhesive insect traps designed to help growers detect, monitor and reduce populations of common flying pests around plants without applying an insecticide.
The bright yellow surface attracts a broad range of flying insects commonly encountered in greenhouses, propagation areas, indoor growing environments and around container-grown plants. Once an insect lands on the trap, the strong adhesive holds it in place.
Each retail pack contains 12 double-sided yellow sticky traps. They provide a simple visual monitoring tool for pests including fungus gnats, whitefly, thrips, winged aphids and leaf miners, helping growers identify insect activity before a small problem develops into a larger infestation.
Sticky traps are particularly useful as part of an Integrated Pest Management (IPM) programme. Regular inspection allows changes in pest activity to be spotted quickly and can help growers assess whether additional biological, cultural or other control measures are required.
Why choose Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps?
- 12 traps per pack - suitable for monitoring several plants or multiple locations within a growing area.
- Double-sided adhesive surface - provides trapping area on both sides of each card.
- Bright yellow colour - visually attractive to a range of common flying plant pests.
- Monitor fungus gnats - useful for detecting adult sciarid or fungus gnat activity around growing media.
- Monitor whitefly - provides a simple way to identify and track adult whitefly populations.
- Useful for thrips and winged aphids - helps indicate the presence and movement of additional flying pests.
- No insecticide required - pests are physically captured by the adhesive surface.
- Supports early detection - regular trap inspection can reveal pest activity before obvious crop damage appears.
- Useful within IPM programmes - complements regular crop scouting and appropriate pest-management strategies.
- Simple visual monitoring - captured insects remain visible, helping growers assess pest pressure over time.
More than a fly trap: an important crop-monitoring tool
Yellow sticky traps are valuable because they do more than physically capture insects. They provide growers with an immediate visual indication of which flying pests are active within a crop.
Checking the traps regularly can help establish whether pest numbers are increasing, decreasing or remaining stable. This is particularly useful in professional growing environments where early intervention can prevent a localised pest problem spreading across a larger crop.
For meaningful monitoring, position traps consistently and inspect them at regular intervals. Where possible, record the type and approximate number of insects captured so changes can be compared over time.
Which pests can yellow sticky traps help monitor?
The yellow surface is attractive to several important flying insect pests. Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps can help monitor:
- Fungus gnats and sciarid flies - adult flies commonly found around damp growing media and propagation crops.
- Whitefly - flying adults associated with a wide range of ornamental and edible crops.
- Thrips - small flying insects that can be detected during crop scouting using sticky traps.
- Winged aphids - useful for detecting flying aphids entering or moving through a crop.
- Leaf miners - adult flying stages can be captured on yellow monitoring cards.
- Other small flying insects - traps can reveal additional insect activity that may warrant closer crop inspection.
Useful for fungus gnat monitoring
Fungus gnats, also known as sciarid flies, are commonly associated with moist organic growing media. Adults can often be seen moving around the substrate surface and lower parts of plants.
Positioning yellow sticky traps close to the growing-media surface can help capture adults and provide an early indication of their presence. The traps target the flying adult stage and should therefore be combined with appropriate crop and growing-media management where a significant infestation is present.
Where should yellow sticky traps be positioned?
Positioning depends on the pest being monitored. For general flying-pest surveillance, traps are normally placed close to crop height where insects are actively moving.
When monitoring fungus gnats, positioning traps nearer the growing-media surface can make it easier to detect adults emerging and moving around pots or propagation trays.
Spread traps across the growing area rather than concentrating all of them in one position. Additional traps can be placed near entrances, vents or known pest hotspots to help identify where insect pressure is developing.
Ideal for Integrated Pest Management
Sticky traps are particularly valuable as a monitoring component within an Integrated Pest Management programme. They can help determine when further action is necessary rather than relying solely on visible plant damage.
They should not be considered a complete solution to a significant infestation. Where pest numbers are high, identify the insect correctly and use an appropriate control programme alongside environmental management, crop hygiene and, where appropriate, biological controls.
When beneficial flying insects are being released, consider trap positioning carefully to minimise unnecessary capture of beneficial species.
How to use Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps
- Remove a trap from the pack and expose the adhesive surfaces as required.
- Hang or position the trap close to the crop in an area where flying insects are likely to be active.
- For fungus gnat monitoring, position traps relatively close to the growing-media surface.
- Distribute multiple traps throughout larger growing areas to improve monitoring coverage.
- Inspect the traps regularly and identify the insects captured where possible.
- Compare catches over time to identify changes in pest activity.
- Replace a trap when the adhesive surface becomes heavily covered with insects, dust or debris and is no longer providing an effective trapping area.

Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps FAQs
Are the traps sticky on both sides?
Yes. Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps are double-sided, providing an adhesive trapping surface on both sides of the card.
Why are insect sticky traps yellow?
Yellow is visually attractive to several common flying plant pests. This encourages insects to land on the card, where they are captured by the adhesive.
Will these traps catch fungus gnats?
Yes. They can capture and monitor adult fungus gnats or sciarid flies. Positioning a trap close to the growing-media surface is particularly useful when monitoring this pest.
Do yellow sticky traps work for whitefly?
Yes. Adult whitefly are attracted to yellow sticky traps, making the cards useful for detecting and monitoring whitefly activity within a crop.
Will sticky traps completely eliminate an insect infestation?
They can reduce the number of flying adults, but their greatest value is usually monitoring and early detection. Established pest problems may require additional cultural, biological or other appropriate control measures.
How often should I check the traps?
Check them regularly as part of normal crop scouting. Consistent inspections make it easier to identify changes in pest numbers and respond before populations increase significantly.
When should I replace a yellow sticky trap?
Replace it when a large proportion of the adhesive area is covered with insects, dust or growing-area debris, or whenever the surface is no longer sufficiently sticky for effective monitoring.
Can sticky traps help identify where pests are coming from?
They can help. Distributing traps across different parts of a growing area can reveal locations with higher insect activity, helping growers focus crop inspections on potential hotspots.
Do Garden King Yellow Sticky Traps contain insecticide?
No insecticide is required for their trapping action. Flying insects are attracted to the yellow surface and are physically retained by the adhesive.
Can I use sticky traps alongside biological pest control?
Sticky cards can form part of an IPM programme alongside biological controls. However, position them carefully when flying beneficial insects are present to reduce unnecessary capture of beneficial species.
How many packs are supplied in a full case?
A full outer case contains 120 retail packs, with 12 yellow sticky traps in each pack.
