Sticky trap types
Yellow sticky cards are the most common: yellow is widely used to monitor whiteflies, aphids, fungus gnats, leafminers and other small flying insects. Blue sticky cards are commonly used for thrips monitoring. Houseplant sticky stakes — small cards on a stake, often in decorative shapes — sell through garden centers and online. Sticky rolls and tapes are long ribbons for growers who run them along crop rows.
Sticky traps share materials with fly paper and glue boards, but are usually PP sheet coated on both sides with a UV-stable glue and a printed grid.
For growers and greenhouse suppliers
Commercial growers buy sticky cards as an integrated pest management (IPM) monitoring tool: cards are hung above the crop, counted weekly and replaced. What matters is a consistent color, a clear counting grid, glue that holds up in heat and humidity, and a bulk pack that is quick to deploy. We supply bulk packs with hangers or clips to horticultural distributors and greenhouse supply companies.
For garden and houseplant brands
Retail buyers want small cards and stakes with friendly shapes (butterflies, flowers, leaves), clear instructions and a peg-hook pack. Houseplant sticky stakes are a fast-growing item with plant owners who struggle with fungus gnats. See OEM & private label for packaging options.

Frequently asked questions
Yellow or blue sticky traps — which do I need?
Yellow is commonly used to monitor whiteflies, aphids and fungus gnats; blue is commonly used for thrips. Many growers use both. We make no catch-rate claims.
Can you make shaped houseplant stakes?
Yes — die-cut shapes (butterfly, leaf, flower and more) with stakes, in your colors and packaging.
Is the glue weatherproof?
We specify UV-stable, heat- and humidity-tolerant glue for greenhouse and outdoor cards. We do not publish lifetime claims.
What is the MOQ and lead time?
Both are quoted per SKU. MOQ depends mainly on size, printing and packaging (stock formats in neutral packaging start lower than custom-printed or custom-molded items); lead time depends on printing, tooling and season. Send your quantities and we confirm both on the quotation — see also packaging & MOQ guide.
Are your traps EPA registered, certified or tested for catch rates?
We supply trap hardware — trap bodies, glue boards, sticky cards and station housings. We do not claim EPA or state pesticide registration, certifications, efficacy or catch/kill rates. Where a lure, attractant or bait is part of the finished product, it can be configured to comply with the buyer’s market regulations; registration and labeling obligations for any pesticidal component stay with the brand owner. Test reports can be discussed on request where available — ask on the inquiry form.
