Catchmaster Tree Shield Lantern Fly & Ant Traps Insect Barrier, 4 Rolls 30ft Each, Outdoor Adhesive Crawling Insect Trap, Glue Traps to Protect Trees, Fruit & Plants, Pest Control Lawn & Garden

These traps really work! I’ve been using them around my trees and they catch tons of spotted lanternflies. Super sticky, easy to use, and each roll lasts a while. Definitely helps protect the yard.

There aren’t any sprays that work for spotted lantern flies so the sticky tape made the most sense to try. The adhesion doesn’t seem that sticky except that it sticks to your fingers. So I had a little trouble wrapping it around, but I wrapped it a few times. I did notice that ants would go up to it touch it and then go around, so I wasn’t very hopeful. In the morning when I looked, I caught two spotted lanternfly nymphs and around two dozen flies. I’m guessing that’s because they landed right on the tape rather than trying to walk over it. I was surprised that the lantern fly nymphs couldn’t escape, because as I mentioned, it didn’t seem that sticky to me. Whether it’ll work for an adult spotted lantern fly is yet to be seen. I went out for the day and came back and found two more nymphs caught and some more flies. So far it works great. It did rain hard so I will have to replace, but they do give you plenty.

Kind of a pain to put on, but works really well. Already catching ants & aphids! Also small spiders that like to build webs in the branches. I might switch to the catchmaster gel adhesive to wrap the tree with saran wrap & have more of an application.

The media could not be loaded. It’s paper so it’s not pliable and it doesn’t form to the trunk of the tree or the branches which aren’t uniformed. It’s not sticky on both sides and pests can get up underneath it if they wanted to. My purpose is to keep farmer ants from harvesting scale on my fig tree. As you can see in the video this product is not going to stop them. Flying insect maybe but not crawling insects. Not only that my first round of putting them on the fig tree – they just fell off. So any kind of humidity they unstick.

Easy to apply catching hundreds if not thousands of flies, ants and stink bugs too! What you see in the pictures is 24 hours immediately following application. There was enough left to easily reapply a second time. We have a very small and very old orchard with big trees. The ants have been relentless in pursuit of damaging our trees and the fruit. This was way better than spraying chemicals on our four ancient trees. (One 🍐 and three 🍎’s) The cost was minimal and the result thus far is amazing. Very happy with how this is working. A+++

Catches some bugs, but the glue isn’t super strong and gets messy. Works for light use, not heavy infestations.

Within 12 hours of wrapping this around our maple tree, we had caught about 50 spotted lantern flies. This is our first summer dealing with this plague and I was very worried about our aging maple (they seem to go for sappy trees) and our 80+ year old oak tree in particular. This product has worked very well!I haven't had a problem catching many beneficial insects or small birds/animals and we have used this on about 5-6 trees in a heavily bird populated yard. I am puzzled how birds could get stuck as another review stated. We wrapped the tape tightly around the tree trunks several feet off the ground and away from any branches. It's a not a spot where birds would be able to land so I don't see any way for them to get stuck. With the tape wrapped tightly at the trunk away from branches, birds are unable to fly close enough to the tape/tree trunk to reach the tape. I haven't found any bees or butterflies stuck in it thankfully. I did find one daddy long-legged spider and a June bug I was able to free. A moth I was not. Many flies. Our neighbor squirrel has not gotten stuck in this to date. I feel this is much safer to use than pesticides while still hopefully preventing devastating loss from invasive insects.PROS: The stickiness does a great job catching insects, it it is much more sticky than something like duct tape or regular double-sided tape and retains it's stickiness after a heavy rain.CONS: While it is easy to unwrap the tape and cut it, if you have a medium-large tree you will find it much easier to wrap with 2 people. One to hold the roll in place while the other rolls it around and cuts.TIPS: Be sure to wrap this tightly around the tree. It works by catching the insects as they crawl up the trunk, and you don't want them having enough space to crawl underneath. You may need to angle the tape a bit to adjust the fit before you join the ends together to hold it in place.If you have an extreme plague like our area of the country currently has, with larger insects like the spotted lantern fly, you may want to put up 2 layers of tape, one above the other. We noticed that the tape will get filled after a few days and the living insects can climb over the dead carcasses of the stuck insects to reach the tree. 2 layers seemed to help catch any insects that made it through the first layer.

I've used this before, easy to put on and very effective at keeping the ants etc off my peaches
