About This Product

The AF Demi-Diamond Trap is your chemical-free solution for monitoring and controlling flying insect infestations. This reusable monitoring station uses pheromone-enhanced sticky pads to attract and capture fruit flies, pantry moths, and clothes moths before they become a problem.

How It Works

The trap uses species-specific pheromones to lure target insects onto ultra-sticky adhesive pads. Once trapped, insects cannot escape, giving you a clear picture of infestation levels and helping you take action early.

Perfect for Multiple Pest Types

Fruit Flies: Essential for kitchens, especially where fresh produce is stored. Detects activity before populations explode.

Pantry Moths: Monitors dry goods storage areas. Early detection prevents costly food waste and contamination.

Clothes Moths: Protects wardrobes, linen cupboards, and stored textiles from damaging larvae.

Reusable & Cost-Effective

The trap housing is designed for long-term use. Simply replace the sticky pads when full or after 6-8 weeks. This makes it far more economical than disposable alternatives while maintaining effectiveness.

Completely Chemical-Free

No pesticides, no toxic fumes, no harmful residues. Safe to use around food preparation areas, children, and pets. Relies purely on biological attraction and physical trapping.

Why This Product is Ideal for Your Area

Peterborough's housing stock presents unique pest challenges that make the AF Demi-Diamond Trap particularly valuable for local homeowners.

Fenland Properties & Damp Issues: Many Peterborough homes, especially in Fenland areas, experience persistent damp problems due to the region's low-lying geography and high water table. Damp conditions create ideal breeding grounds for silverfish and moth populations. Clothes moths thrive in humid wardrobes and storage spaces, while pantry moths exploit moisture-affected food storage areas. The Demi-Diamond Trap's chemical-free monitoring helps you detect these moisture-loving pests early, before they damage textiles or contaminate stored goods.

Historic Cathedral Area Vulnerabilities: Period properties around Peterborough Cathedral often feature older construction with natural ventilation gaps and traditional materials that moths find attractive. Wool carpets, horsehair plaster, and stored vintage textiles in these homes are particularly vulnerable to clothes moth larvae. Early detection with pheromone traps prevents costly damage to irreplaceable items and building fabrics.

New Build Estate Challenges: Modern developments across Peterborough often feature open-plan kitchens and tightly sealed building envelopes. While energy-efficient, this design can trap moisture and cooking odors, creating perfect conditions for fruit flies around fresh produce and waste areas. The Demi-Diamond Trap provides discrete monitoring in contemporary kitchens without introducing chemical sprays into food preparation zones.

Dry Rot & Wet Rot Connections: Properties dealing with timber decay issues often see concurrent pest problems. Fungi-affected areas attract moisture-loving insects, and the increased humidity from rot treatment can trigger secondary infestations. Monitoring with chemical-free traps is essential when properties are already undergoing treatment, as pesticide interactions can complicate remediation efforts.

Planning Considerations: With 56 Article 4 directions limiting permitted development rights across Peterborough, many homeowners live in conservation areas or protected neighborhoods where maintaining property condition is especially important. Pest damage to period features or stored items can affect property value and conservation area compliance. Early detection prevents damage that could require planning permission to repair.
