Catchmaster insect glue traps & monitors | 288i kit — 5 glue boards + 15 monitoring cards, non-chemical low-profile design

Catchmaster 288i is a non-chemical, adhesive-based insect trapping system: five glue boards and fifteen monitoring cards to detect and capture crawling pests without pesticides.

Keep an eye on crawling insects with a discreet, low-profile monitoring kit from Catchmaster that relies on a sticky surface rather than sprays or poisons. The 288i set combines full-size glue boards with smaller monitors so you can place traps where pests travel most—along baseboards, near appliances, and in closets. It’s designed for detection and capture in homes, garages, food preparation areas, storage rooms, and small commercial locations.

How does this kit help me find and stop crawling pests?

The Catchmaster system gives visual evidence of pest activity so you can act before infestations grow. Glue surfaces trap insects that cross them; monitoring cards guide placement and show where to intensify control measures.

• Includes five larger glue boards for high-traffic runways and fifteen smaller monitoring cards for precise placement.
• Non-toxic adhesive attracts and retains a variety of crawling insects including ants, cockroaches, and beetles.
• Flat, low-profile design fits under appliances and along baseboards without obstructing space.
• Opaque or printed surfaces reduce accidental visibility and unintended touching.

Where should I place these traps for best results?

Place traps where insects are likely to travel or hide: along walls, behind appliances, near waste areas, and adjacent to entry points. Frequent inspection of these spots helps you map pest patterns quickly.

• Position glue boards parallel to wall edges and under sinks or refrigerators.
• Use monitors in cabinets, storage boxes, or along shelving runs for targeted detection.
• Inspect traps every few days to record catches and rotate locations as needed.
• Avoid placing where pets or children could contact the adhesive.

How do I use and maintain the glue boards safely?

Using Catchmaster boards is straightforward: unfold or remove backing, set the trap in the chosen location, and check regularly. Replace boards when they are full of insects, dusty, or the adhesive no longer captures effectively.

• Handle boards by edges; never touch adhesive surface with bare hands.
• Record the date and location of each placement to track trends over time.
• Dispose of used boards in sealed trash bags to contain trapped pests.
• Keep spare adhesives on hand to maintain continuous monitoring coverage.

Will these traps affect pets, children, or food areas?

Catchmaster’s glue traps are chemical-free and rely on adhesive capture, reducing risks from pesticides. However, physical contact with pets or children should be prevented by placing traps in inaccessible locations.

• Non-toxic design means no airborne residues or chemical drift.
• Place traps under appliances or behind units to limit access by pets and kids.
• Do not place directly on food prep surfaces; choose adjacent floors or cabinets instead.
• Use tamper-resistant placement for added safety in households with children or animals.

Who is this for: The Catchmaster 288i kit suits homeowners, renters, property managers, and small business operators who need a pesticide-free way to detect and reduce crawling insect activity. It’s ideal for anyone wanting a discreet, easy-to-deploy monitoring solution that supports integrated pest management and helps prioritize additional control steps when and where they’re needed.
