Yellow Sticky Traps for Greenhouse IPM: B2B Wholesale Guide for Growers
Quick answer: Greenhouse growers face a constant battle against whiteflies, aphids, fungus gnats and leafminers.
Greenhouse growers face a constant battle against whiteflies, aphids, fungus gnats and leafminers. Chemical controls create residue risks and resistance issues. Yellow sticky traps offer a proven, non-insecticidal monitoring and mass-trapping solution that integrates seamlessly into any Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program.
As a leading yellow sticky trap manufacturer in China, Shandong KEENFLY supplies bulk yellow sticky traps to greenhouse operators, agricultural cooperatives and pest control distributors across North America, Europe and the Middle East.
Why Yellow Sticky Traps Work in Greenhouses
The bright yellow color attracts a wide range of flying pests. Once insects contact the UV-resistant adhesive surface, they are permanently trapped. This dual function — monitoring pest populations and reducing infestation levels — makes yellow sticky cards indispensable for commercial growers.
Key benefits for greenhouse operations:
- No chemical residue — Suited to non-chemical programmes (documentation available)
- Continuous monitoring — Visual pest counts guide spray timing decisions
- Cost-effective — Bulk pricing from $0.03 per card at container quantities
- Customizable sizes — Standard 10×25cm, 20×25cm, 25×40cm, or custom dimensions
- UV-stable adhesive — Maintains stickiness for 3–4 months under greenhouse conditions
Choosing the Right Yellow Sticky Trap for Your Greenhouse
Size and Format Options
For greenhouse IPM, the most common formats are:
- Flat cards (10×25cm or 20×25cm) — Ideal for hanging between crop rows at plant canopy height
- Large format (25×40cm) — Best for high-pressure environments like tomato and pepper greenhouses
- Roll format (20cm × 100m) — Cost-efficient for continuous-strip installation on overhead wire systems
Adhesive Types
Standard non-drying glue works for most applications. For cold-climate greenhouses, we offer a low-temperature adhesive formula that maintains tack down to 5°C. For export to tropical markets, our high-tack formulation resists humidity degradation above 85% RH.

FAQ
What pests do yellow sticky traps catch in greenhouses?
Yellow sticky traps are effective against whiteflies, fungus gnats, aphids, leafminers, thrips (to a lesser extent) and other small flying insects common in greenhouse environments. For thrips-specific monitoring, we recommend pairing with blue sticky traps.
How many yellow sticky traps do I need per greenhouse?
A common guideline is 1 trap per 20–30 square meters for monitoring, or 1 trap per 10 square meters for mass trapping. Exact density depends on crop type, pest pressure and greenhouse layout. Contact our technical team for a customized IPM trap placement plan.
Can yellow sticky traps be used in greenhouses?
Yes. Our yellow sticky traps use non-insecticidal adhesive and PP substrate materials that are part of non-chemical control programmes. We can provide material safety data sheets (MSDS) and compliance documentation upon request.
What is the minimum order quantity for bulk greenhouse orders?
Our standard MOQ is 500 pieces per SKU. For first-time buyers evaluating quality, we offer trial orders at reduced quantities. Container-load orders (FCL) receive the best per-unit pricing.
Do you offer custom sizes and branding for greenhouse distributors?
Yes. We provide OEM/ODM services including custom dimensions, private label packaging, logo printing and custom color options. Our design team can create packaging artwork for your target market.
How long does the adhesive last in greenhouse conditions?
Under standard greenhouse conditions (20–30°C, moderate humidity), our UV-resistant adhesive maintains effectiveness for 3–4 months. For high-humidity environments, we recommend our enhanced adhesive formulation with 6-month durability.
