They work!,

This review is from: Yellow Sticky Aphid Whitefly Trap Pack of 15
These traps helped me get rid of a nasty little whitefly problem on my houseplants. I did use these traps indoors, so I'm not sure how effective they are when used outdoors.
The traps were great for trapping the adult whiteflies, thereby keeping them from multiplying further, but I also took some advice I found online and washed each of the infested plants with plenty of soapy water to get rid of eggs and larva that were stuck to the underside of the leaves. You have to really get in there and rub each leaf individually with soapy water and then rinse well, because the eggs that they lay are very sticky and you want to remove all of that stuff before they hatch. I used dishwashing detergent and even though it was a pain, I was able to get rid of those nasty bugs that were killing my plants. So the traps didn't singlehandedly solve my problem, but they absolutely helped. They do what they're supposed to do, but I recommend a good washing of the plants if you're serious about getting rid of these pests. This package of 15 was a really good value. I assumed I would get 15 strips or whatever, but I got 15 large sticky traps that were more than enough to spread throughout the apartment around all of my plants, and I still have some left over, which hopefully I will not have to use. It was a really good deal for the price, and the traps arrived within a few days of ordering. Very satisfied.

This review is from: Yellow Sticky Aphid Whitefly Trap Pack of 15
I've used these traps before and they do work to rid plants of whiteflies and gnats especially if applied before too big an infestation. Traps work best when stickum has been evenly applied to yellow inside paper--traps last longest when used in an indoor setting where they don't quickly get coated with dust and grit blown by outdoor breezes.

Wonder where the Whiteflys went?,

This review is from: Yellow Sticky Aphid Whitefly Trap Pack of 15
And the answer is: All over the Yellow Sticky Aphid Whitefly traps!
At first we thought they were just fruit flys. But when the pest population grew into an ever increasing swarm, we suddenly realized that our bargain Christmas tree (purchased on the cheap from a huge garden center) had introduced a rapid breeding intruder into our pristine indoor environment. All of our indoor houseplants were infested with these annoying devils. Bummer! We googled around for possible fixes but decided not to subject our precious babies to allegedly "safe" alternative sprays, concoctions or whatever. Instead, we decided to try the least toxic option first-with a wait and see attitude. Good plan! Not only did these simple sticky cards work from day one, they indicated (by the sheer number of trapped critters) which plants were the most infected, so we just put more cards in and around those plants. In a few weeks the buggys went bye-bye. Completely. Bottom line: For our indoor environment, this product worked perfectly. Highly recommended! Tips: Leave the cards in place for a while even after the bugs disappear-to pick up any stragglers or late bloomers. Once a week, check closely for survivors and open and close the cards to "reactivate" the stickymess. Since these bugs are attracted to light, putting a card or two near sunny windows isn't a bad idea either.
