Description
An adhesive strip used to monitor insect infestations. Sticky traps for insects were developed in the 1970s. The strips contain a tacky, non-drying adhesive that traps and retains any insects coming into contact. Some strips are housed in boxes or tents. They can also be taped to the floor or hung near a light. Sticky traps are often baited with food or pheromones to attract the insects. The retained insects can be identified and counted as part of an integrated pest managment program.
