Application
Brush-On Can: Stir if needed, then use the built-in brush to apply a thin, even coating to a clean, dry trap surface such as boards, cards, or coated paper. Allow excess to level out; do not apply directly to plants.
Aerosol Spray: Shake well and spray a light, even coat onto the trap surface from several inches away. Use short bursts to avoid pooling or drips.
Apply only to surfaces you intend to remain sticky.
Place coated traps near pest activity, entry points, or along travel paths.
Reapply when the surface becomes covered with insects, dust, or debris, or loses tackiness.
