Catchmaster Dual Action Plant Label Sticky Traps | 4 x 100 Count

Catchmaster Dual Action Plant Label Sticky Traps for Pots and Trays Each label is a yellow stake about 1 x 5.5 in, with a writing face on one side and adhesive on the other. Catchmaster sells them under its Gro line as a dual action trap, plant tag and sticky monitor in one piece. This listing is 4 x 100 labels, so a full propagation run can carry a tag in every tray or pot. Write the cultivar or the date on the clean side with a marker. Peel the paper backing off the other side to expose the glue. Push the stake into the media near the edge of the pot, label facing you and sticky face toward the plant. Insects end up on the reverse side, out of view, so the tag still reads cleanly from the aisle. The yellow draws fungus gnats, thrips, whiteflies, leaf miners and aphids. Catchmaster recommends the stakes for pots up to 5 gallons, propagation trays, nursery pots and rockwool cubes. The maker lists them as non-toxic and pesticide-free, with UV and water resistance. Plant Stakes That Watch the Media Surface Fungus gnat adults rarely fly far from wet media, which is exactly where these stakes sit. A tag low in the pot catches them as they come up out of the substrate. That makes the stakes most useful in propagation, where cuttings and seedlings sit in constantly moist plugs and cubes. Pull a stake and turn it over during routine watering to see what has landed. A few gnats on most stakes points to a watering or drainage pattern rather than one bad tray. Thrips and whiteflies show up as well on taller plants. A low stake samples what moves near the base, so it reads the media better than the canopy. Swap a stake once the glue side is crowded, and write the new date on the replacement. Keep the sticky face away from foliage, since leaves that touch it tear when they pull free. Gloves help when peeling backings on a bench full of trays. Key Features Tag and trap in one stake: The writable face carries the plant name or date while the glue face monitors pests. Hidden catch side: Insects collect on the back of the stake, so the label stays clean and readable. Yellow adhesive face: Draws fungus gnats, thrips, whiteflies, leaf miners and aphids close to the media. Peel-off backing: The glue stays covered until the stake goes into a pot. Sized for small containers: Recommended for pots up to five gallons, propagation trays, nursery pots and rockwool cubes. Non-toxic and weather resistant: Catchmaster lists the stakes as pesticide-free and resistant to UV and water.
