My Container Bug Barrier Idea

Simple, yet Effective.. Take 2 Window Fly Traps(The Invisible clear kind). Cut Both in Half (The Long Way).Ok, now remember one side is real stick the other isn't. So, now you should have 4 long halves. Now, depending on how wide your plants container is determines how many "half strips" you will need. So do some simple math. S=Half strip length; C= Your container length; C/S= The # of Half Strips You Need..
Place a 1" piece of black duct tape on the end of every strip, to secure the half strip piece on your container, make sure it's snug tight to the container before you press the duct tape down all the way! otherwise the bugs can sneek underneath your bug barrier! Ok, now repeat that overlaping each 1" piece of duct tape as you go along until you have a invisible, very sticky bug barrier for a few bucks. Now were you place the barrier is up to you as you see in the pictures I place my underneath the middle of the container, that way its not too close to the ground, and its not near the area where I pick it up!, So keep that, in mind, you dont want this stuff on your hands! Anyways, questions comments anything welcome, peace!
