Hot-Melt Adhesive for Sticky Insect Traps

Hot-Melt Adhesive for Sticky Insect Traps

The industrial production of pest control products requires the use of specialized adhesives. Hot-melt Pressure Sensitive Adhesive (PSA) with residual tack is UV-resistant and is the ideal solution for creating effective traps. The main feature of PSA hot-melt is its ability to retain tackiness for a long time after application without drying out or forming a crust. This ensures the instant capture of insects upon the slightest contact with the surface.

Areas of Application

Specialized PSA hot-melt is suitable for application on various types of substrates in the production of sticky traps: paper, cardboard, polymer films, and plastic.

Key sectors for insect trap usage:

1. Agriculture and Gardening: Production of adhesive color traps—yellow and blue cards for monitoring and mass catching of pests in greenhouses, gardens, and fields.

2. Household Protection: Manufacturing sticky fly tapes, traps for food moths, cockroaches, and ants for use in residential premises.

3. Tree Protection: Application on trapping bands to protect the trunks of fruit and ornamental trees from crawling insects.

4. Veterinary and Livestock: Traps for use in barns, pigsties, and poultry farms to reduce fly populations without the use of insecticides.

Advantages of Hot-Melt Adhesive for Insect Traps

Our hot-melt adhesives are developed to withstand complex operating conditions: they are resistant to UV radiation, temperature fluctuations, and humidity, making them suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. The hot-melt adhesive is solvent-free, non-toxic, and environmentally safe, which is critically important for the agricultural sector and household applications.

Using PSA hot-melt offers manufacturers several technological and operational benefits:

  • High Initial Tack: Ensures instant fixation of insects of any size—from small gnats to large beetles.
  • Heat Resistance: Does not run off the base at high temperatures and does not lose tackiness when the temperature drops.
  • Low Application Temperature: Protects substrates during the manufacturing process.
  • Adaptability: The adhesives are applicable for various trap designs.
  • Long Service Life: The adhesive layer does not oxidize and retains its adhesive properties throughout the entire period of use.
  • Eco-friendliness and Safety: The absence of odor and toxic volatile substances allows the products to be used in “organic” farming and residential zones.
  • Durability: Withstands rigorous testing for heat, UV, and durability to ensure stable performance.
