Terro T3206 Spider & Insect Traps Indoor, Insect Traps Indoor Sticky Pads, 4 Count (Pack of 1)

These strips absolutely work wonderfully. Although they are hard to put in the “tenting” position, I left mine flat. Each sheet has 4 sticky pads. I cut mine to utilize more. The first day they caught 4 huge spiders. So I bought more. Highly recommend!

These are the best ant traps that I have EVER used. If you use them properly and read the directions place them in a hidden area and give it a few days… The ants are attracted to the solution inside And that's it. You will be surprised how well these work. I will continue to order them.

I'm in a house that's over 50 years old, very clean but with a small moisture issue in the basement that I just bought a pump dehumidifier for. Had a manual-dump dehumidifier for years before but it doesn't seem to remove enough moisture. I reference this as this is the only reason why I can see that I'd have an issue with spiders down there; it's not major, but there's enough (I can find about one a day during Spring) that it's a problem.So I put a half dozen of these in the spots I've seen them. They have caught some huge ones. Where these things are coming from is SO puzzling, as there are minimal ways to enter from the outside and most everything is off the floors on rollers/etc., mostly organized and as clean as a basement can be. In other words, few places for them to hide.Once I see something trapped on one of these things I use a paper towel to grab the sticky part and squash the catch as quickly as possible; I really don't like killing things in general, and I'm hoping that the spiders/silverfish/etc that get stuck on these die as quickly as possible, I don't want them struggling......Well...I saw a wolf spider caught on one one day. I had a horrible back issue and couldn't bend under the sink area to get to it immediately...The next day I could...BUT...THE WOLF SPIDER WAS GONE FROM THE TRAP.A medium sized one this time.I was absolutely shocked.These strips are kinda like those wax hair-removal strips. In fact, I assumed that's basically what they are, re-purposed.So, VERY sticky.I could NOT believe the spider was gone.I am the only one in the house. There is no other explanation except that it escaped the sticky part.I am continuing to use the strips with success, and they do seem to have reduced the problem by a solid 90% or so. Ended up catching at least a dozen wolf spiders, some very large (over a couple inches including their legs in a few instances...really horrifying things, even tho I understand they're beneficial in many ways. I can't tolerate them in my home).SO: it's a worthwhile product, but I'm checking on the strips frequently now and will make sure the catches are killed asap, also because apparently they can actually escape, which leads me to believe they're not dying quickly, which I'd much rather be the case.I'd ask the manufacturer if perhaps there's a way to help ensure they're killed when they get stuck, perhaps a natural food-based killer (like boric acid for ants, roaches, etc.) of some sort. Altho I'd rather not use anything toxic, I think in a case like this where it's so contained, it might make a good option for many of us to help ensure they don't escape, that they die quickly, and therefore completely effective.

These work phenomenal.

Two Month Update:It has now been nearly two months and I’ve placed these all over my home including the garage. Only one trap caught something and it was a single ant. All other traps are clean except for a few dust bunnies. I was very shocked that even the garage placed one didn’t catch anything whatsoever. I tried placing them in various places where they’d have the best chase of success but they apparently don’t work for me. And I do occasionally see a small spider or something around so it’s not like there’s nothing to catch. My home is very clean but the garage is detached and full of webs etc so I was highly shocked that that one caught nothing as well. Oh well maybe others will have better luck.Original Review:Well I’ve had them installed for a few days now and they’ve caught nothing. I placed 3 of these traps in different places and not a single thing has been trapped. I had a fly fly directly past it several times and never seemed interested. I have one in the garage where a sizable spider common crawls past my cameras and now that I put a trap there he apparently is ignoring his/her favorite route across my bicycle. The spider probably is the size of a quarter when including his legs. But while he has set off my motion cameras on several occasions walking across the bicycle hung just below my camera, now I haven’t gotten a single motion alert. So I guess it’s working by keeping it away but it’s probably just going a different way. Also that stupid fly has been driving crazy for days and these traps don’t seem to attract them. Maybe they only work with swarms of insects that just happen to run into them. I had hope they’d be attracted but no such luck. My home is very clean but this fly entered while I had a window open and now he annoys me at night by buzzing by me. I’ve tried to hit him with newspapers and towels but it’s the Top Gun of flies. And that spider in my garage is never visible when I go out there looking for him.

Really good product for a slab home with spiders. and also Pill Bugs from outdoor landscaping with heavy mulch. The "rolly Polly" pill bugs have been really bad this year with heavy rains lasting weeks. I just cut out a single square. Place it at the corners of the doorway where they're entering. I'll turn them around on occasion so they fill up the trap. And then I'll replace the traps every week or two.For spiders, I'll place them along baseboards, behind appliances and furniture.I've gotten some really gnarly looking large spiders with these specific traps. When I have a basement, I have no problem with abundant spiders. They catch the bugs I'd rather not have in the house.When I have a 70-year-old slab townhouse in the brown recluse spider range?My inclination is to catch them before they make it upstairs.ALSO PERFECT DIAGNOSTIC TOOL FOR OTHER PESTS.In a garage, multiple attics, or basements, these are perfect for nabbing the occasional field mouse before it sets.up shop for the winter. Nobody wants Mice to nest in the walls or inside cars.I actually prefer the heavier plastic trays for diagnosing rodents. And you will need stronger traps for rats. But these are really nice backup for mice. (Like you really need these for something else. But if you get some ice, you're accomplishing that much more) I have caught at least one field mouse on these traps when placed behind my garage chest freezer. (House backs up to a wooded ravine. So it's always a possibility). If you find a mouse on these traps and it's still alive, simply dip the trap into the toilet, and drown the mouse. More humane than throwing a living mouse attached to a trap in the trash.ONLY NEGATIVE I can think of is that, these are attractive to birds.I had these placed very far back in the garage.And I've had 2 separate birds caught on one. So they must smell these just like the mice. I poured vegetable oil over the bird attached to the trap, which frees the bird from the sticky substance.. I let the bird fall off into a bed of ground cover.And then I got out the hose, and used the hose sprayer to drench the ground cover bed. hopefully giving the bird a chance to wash off the oil,.and hang out long enough to safely dry out and recover. Or at least giving it the last best humane option.

Just a few years ago, for the 1st time, we were infested with crickets in our basement. I think they get into the garage, too, but I don't care about that. This happens now, every year, as Winter approaches & lasts until Spring. I think they’re called Camel Crickets. Don’t know where they come from but they do not chirp, like outside, summer crickets do. I now put these traps in various spots in my basement and, usually, one on the steps leading to our main floor in case any try to come upstairs. These traps have an adhesive that has something in it that draws the crickets to it. They go in, never to come out again, trapped by the strong adhesive. I was shocked at the large amount of crickets each trap caught. Had no idea there were so many. Before buying these traps, I became aware of the crickets when I went into the basement and 2 jumped onto my thigh. They don’t bite, but still. Yuck. only 4 stars for easy to use because, you have to be careful when folding them for use, according to the instructions, because the adhesive is REALLY strong and you don’t want to accidentally touch it, as I have done, while setting it up for use. But, lesson learned & now I’ve gotten better at it. Most importantly, they do the job. Again, I am astounded each year when I check the ones I’ve put down, to see if they need replacements, at the amount of crickets these traps have trapped. I already have 2 packs of Terro traps aside, ready for Winter, and the crickets it brings, when it comes. Great product. Does its job. Less expensive than other brands but, just as good.

I purchased these because of the very high reviews that they have. However, I've used these for 3 weeks, and has not captured one bug. I just moved into a brand new townhome community, and they're still doing construction. So I've been seeing some nice size spiders in my garage and some other little insects. I placed seven of these in my garage three weeks ago, and they haven't trapped one bug. I literally saw a nice size spider that was pretty big, crawl into it onto the sticky part, and crawl right out of it and kept going.

Useless product

These sticky Terro bug traps I think are the best on the market. They are getting harder to find where I live, and when I find them the price keeps going up- so this 3 pack from Amazon is a great deal! If I bought two of these in the store I shop at, it would be the same price as this 3-pack from Amazon- so it's like with this Amazon pack, I'm getting one for free! :-)

The product certainly works. We bought them because we had had the house sprayed for spiders only to find out that spraying didn’t work for ‘Huntsman’ spiders so we had to explore other options.They work great places in areas along walls near entry points of the home. The spiders try to hide in them along the way. It’s a horrible way to go though because once they’re stuck they die slowly. I suggest you check them regularly to 1. Replace them and 2. Put the poor things out of their misery. Photo below of what I found a couple of days ago.

Arrived on time. They do the job. As described on Amazon.

Très pratique et efficace!! Merci
