Kit Contents

The Bug Beater® Stink Bug Trap Kit comes with all the required items to set up and operate within a short time.

• 3 traps
• 1 pheromone lure
• 3 twist ties

This implies that several traps can be deployed simultaneously, or replaceable ones can be deployed to ensure coverage.

How the Trap Works

The Bonide Stink Bug Trap works by releasing pheromones that entice stink bugs in a broad area. When they get close, insects are stuck on the sticky panel, and they cannot escape.

With time, the availability of trapped bugs increases the lure's attractiveness, due to the ability of the trapped bugs to release pheromones that attract other bugs. This generates a circle of attraction that increases with the passage of the season.

Ideal Usage Tips

The location and timing of the trap are very important to its success.

• Placement Strategy: The trap mostly works when suspended 4 to 5 feet off the ground and is located approximately 10 feet away from gardens, back doors, or fruit trees. By hanging traps on fences, decks, or patios, results are maximized, but the traps are not cluttered with food.
• Seasonal Effectiveness: The Bonide Stink Bug Trap is more effective during the late spring and early fall seasons when stink bugs are the most active, feeding and mating. During colder months, bugs overwinter in the house or the ground and therefore reduce their effectiveness.
• For Homes & Larger Areas: In the case of homes and larger areas, the average households enjoy at least one tap in the front and the backyard. Farm size or other larger properties may need 8-10 traps per acre to control it efficiently.
• Indoor Applications: Traps should be positioned at places of light indoors or at points of entry. Stink bugs have a natural inclination to lighted places that enhance capture.
• Maintenance and Replacement: Once the sticky panel is stuffed with bugs, it needs to be changed. The lure itself can be moved on to a new sticky sheet until it expires in 28 days.
• Combination with Other Measures: With more serious cases, Bonide suggests using traps together with other solutions like Bonide Beetle Killer in the outdoors or using insect control sprays indoors. It is a combined method that causes a rapid reduction in the number of people before the traps are used.

Final Thoughts

The Bonide Stink Bug Trap is an ecological and convenient substitute for chemical pesticides. Its high-tech pheromone technology, sticky capture system, and easy-to-use design make it an easy mechanism for controlling populations of stink bugs both indoors and outdoors.
