Yellow sticky traps

Some of you probably have beside your garden also few fruit trees - a small orchard. When they start to fade, we have to hang a yellow sticky traps on them. I would like to especially point out that we shouldn`t put those traps on the flowering trees, since this is the most common mistake that does more harm than good. During flowering we can catch, not only pests but also the bees that do benefit to our plants.




After flowering, the yellow sticky traps will catch various pests and flies.

We wrap sticky tape around the steams (about 15cm above the floor), which catch ants and other pests that crawl on the tree.
