Features & Benefits
Attracts and traps insects
These sticky stakes attract a variety of flying insects, including whiteflies, fungus gnats, thrips, and fruit flies, reducing not just those that feast on your tender houseplants, but also other flying nuisances. The special formula attracts insects like a magnet, killing them and reducing your infestation without harmful pesticides.
Easy to use
Safer® Sticky Stakes are simple to use. These small stakes are easily placed in the dirt of your potted plants and may be concealed by the leaves for a more attractive aesthetic. You can use the stakes indoors or out – or both, and they work best in potted plants versus flower beds. After placing the stake, shake your plant slightly, moving any insects and enticing them to fly to the yellow trap on the stake. Once the strip is full, simply remove, toss in the trash, and replace with a fresh stick.
Protect your houseplants with sticky stakes

They trap a variety of insects who are capable of damaging your indoor plants in a short period of time. Using Sticky Stakes helps ensure your houseplants stay green and healthy.

My plant leaves look chewed! Do you know what type of insect might do that?
Insects that have the ability to chew plants must have special cutters in their mouths for this purpose. Such insects may include caterpillars, beetles, and grasshoppers for example.
Can aphids or other insect pests spread viruses from one plant to another?
Yes, many insect pests can transmit a virus from one plant to another. Pumpkins, potatoes, lettuce, melons, cucumbers, beans and beets are just some of the vegetable plants that can be affected.
How do I know if my plant is being attacked by an insect or a disease?
If it’s an insect, the plant may have holes in its leaves. Turn the leaves over and you may see the insects themselves clustered on the underside of the leaves. You may also see and feel a sticky substance if it’s an insect because the insect will leave a secretion on the plant.
Is a spider mite an insect or is it actually a spider?
Spider mites belong to a class called arachnids, to which spiders also belong. They are not actually insects.
