The adhesive trap for flying insects comprises a flat carrier (1), with a mounting (4) and a catch wall (8). The upper surface (2) of the carrier, the mounting and the catch wall surfaces are coated with a layer (5) which attracts and holds the insects. When deployed, e.g. at a window, the carrier is horizontal and the catch wall is vertical. The carrier is of glass, cardboard, card, plastics or a compound material. The coating layer has an adhesive to trap insects on contact, together with a lure of sexual or congregational pheromones, feeding stimulants and attractive odors. The specification is an addition to 10055135.1.
