Pests can be a persistent challenge for UK gardeners and growers—whether you’re nurturing houseplants, running a greenhouse, or managing a commercial grow. At StickyTraps.co.uk, we provide colour-coded sticky traps that help you monitor and control the most common insect pests found in UK horticulture.

Sticky traps work by attracting flying pests using colour and trapping them on a non-drying adhesive. They’re safe, simple, and a key part of Integrated Pest Management (IPM).
