Catchmaster Fly Ribbons are a long-standing choice for non-toxic pest control, utilizing a scent-based lure integrated directly into the glue. This version uses a vanilla or cherry-style attractant to draw houseflies toward the high-tack polyisobutylene adhesive. The ribbons are made of Kraft paper and are designed to be composted after the pests have been removed, making them a more eco-efficient choice for many households.
To get the best performance out of each ribbon, warming the tube in your hands for about 30 seconds before pulling the string helps prevent the red pull-tab from snapping. This warmth reduces the viscosity of the adhesive at the seal, allowing for a smooth unraveling. These ribbons are built to maintain their stickiness for up to four months and are specifically formulated to resist dripping even as temperatures rise in a kitchen or sunroom.
Safety note: Because these ribbons are extremely sticky, they are best hung in corners or high spots where they won't accidentally come into contact with hair, clothing, or wandering pets.
If you need to protect a larger area like a stable or garage, the Catchmaster Giant Glue Trap roll offers significantly more coverage.
