This is a general resource for animal owners regarding our products. It is not intended to be a substitute for and should not be relied upon in lieu of the advice of a licensed veterinarian.

Our products are not designed for animal use. Our products contain plastic parts, which can be harmful if chewed or swallowed. Pets and other animals should not be allowed to chew, eat, or play with any of our products.

We use RESCUE! products in our own homes, around our animals and our families – and most of our products use ingredients that have a non-toxic mode of action. Below, you can find more information about the active ingredients in our products and other helpful information.

Because we know that feeling of rising panic that comes on when your animal swallows something, we have a free resource available to you if your animal has possibly eaten or come in contact with a RESCUE! product.

Helpful Information:

Our Fly Traps do not use any killing agents or poisons. They rely on luring flies with food and feed-grade ingredients, then trapping the flies until they expire on their own.

Hanging traps out of reach of animals is a good way to prevent them from getting into the trap. If your animal has ingested part of a fly trap and you are concerned for their health, refer to the hotline stated above.

If a trap is spilled or dropped, we recommend enzyme-based cleaners to remove the odor. Do not add water or liquid to dry powder attractant that has spilled, as that will activate its odors. If dry powder attractant is spilled, sweep it into trash to dispose.

The lures we use are very powerful at attracting insects. If the liquid is spilled, wash thoroughly with dish soap or another degreaser type soap. Make sure any trapped insects are dead before handling and rebaiting the trap. Do not get this in your eyes or skin, it could be painful.

Spider Traps:

Keep Out of Reach of Children

Helpful Information:

Our Spider Traps have a glue dot pattern which allows more spiders to be caught before it is time to replace it. The decorative plastic shield protects animals from having easy access to the glue dots. However, if you or an animal happen to come in contact with the glue, gently pull the trap away and the adhesive will release. Use petroleum jelly, baby oil, mineral oil, or another petroleum-based product to remove any adhesive residue.

These traps do not use poisons or killing agents to kill insects.  Instead, they rely on a highly effective visual lure (the pixelated pattern on the cardboard surface overlaid with glue) to attract the insect to the glue surface. If you or an animal come in contact with the glue, gently pull TrapStik away and the adhesive will release. Use petroleum jelly, baby oil, mineral oil, or another petroleum-based product to remove any adhesive residue.

If the glue comes in contact with clothing or fabric, we recommend these stain removal tips.

We highly recommend using the supplied bird guards on our outdoor TrapStiks to protect wildlife.
