YELLOW VASO TRAP
Eco-Friendly Fly Trap
Vaso Trap is an eco-friendly insect trap for fruit flies, common flies, hornets, wasps, and various types of flying pests. It is a food baited chromotropic trap that is easy to prepare at home by recycling 1 kg honey jars. Like the famous Tap Trap, Vaso Trap is made of a very resistant plastic material in an intense yellow colour, and is an environmentally and health-friendly solution: useful for the defence of orchards, gardens, vineyards, apiaries, green spaces in general, it can be used in campsites, farmhouses, terraces, country houses, cottages with gardens, boats, etc.
– Where to put it? The Vaso Trap flytrap can be hung directly from an aerial stand, or placed on a shelf or on the ground, without risk of tipping over.
– How is the bait made? Food bait is prepared using common and inexpensive natural food substances, which will vary according to the type of insect to be trapped (below are a number of recipes we have tried and tested successfully for many years).
