Do you use insect glue boards aka, sticky traps? Whether you’re a professional or a DIY pest controller, I think we all do. They’re a very flexible and cheap tool that can help out in many ‘sensitive’ & or ‘tricky’ situations as well as provide a way to monitor activity.

Like anything, they can be a bit overused and just placing them willy nilly around the house oftentimes catches nothing but dust- but with some forethought and just a little bit of creativity, you can use this quiet little accessory in some surprising ways and in areas where pesticides might not be practical (or safe) to use.

For me, I use Trapper LTD’s and they come in perforated sheets of three traps per sheet. This is nice because you can split the sheet and use one, two or all three. They’re designed to simply fold up in a tent shape which is great but I thought you might like to see a few pictorial ideas of how you can expand the way you use this simple tool. Perhaps this might be helpful or it may be that you have a way in which you use them that isn’t listed. If so, we’d all be grateful to hear about it. Just leave your comment below.
