Sticky Trap Photos

Hi. This may be a touchy subject (even sticky if you will pardon the pun) but I want to make a post on this subject. I will be posting pictures of animals in general (insects, arachnids, mammals, ect.) that I come across that are stuck on "sticky/glue" traps. I understand that such implements may be offensive or deemed "abusive" by some people however they are a series of products available on the market and have to be viewed with open understanding. It is not my job (or right) to judge a person or business for using a legal product in it's intended function even if there are casualties that result. (That being said I do NOT agree or support the use of these products to intentionally go out and trap wildlife, etc. Any illegal use of these products (ESPECIALLY in parks or wildlife areas) should be viewed as inappropriate/unacceptable and legal action by authorities then allowed.)
These traps whenever used by others have been a source of focus by me for years since even a "clean" basement may have unknown wonders pop up on these traps. Although I do not recommend these for intentionally catching wildlife there is a unique opportunity I will try to show with this database now available to put such photos on. I apologize in advance if this may offend anyone however the full loss would be to ignore the beauty wherever possible.
So much unseen life occurs "behind the scenes" and is normally impossible to witness let alone note and photograph. I find it amazing when things appear on such "sticky" traps and there is no indication that there ever was those things in the area. So if I post pictures showing what is on such a trap it is not to offend or upset. I want others to realize that in an area such as a town, house, basement, etc. there can be so much life worth noticing that it is possible to then remove the traps for a night and walk around with a flashlight to see them alive and moving through.
I will not be intentionally and have never intentionally set these traps in order to just "kill". I find that if these traps are used for mice (for example) then the mice can easily be removed from the trap by using olive oil/ canola oil and released outside. Even spiders, insects, snakes, ect. can be removed carefully from the traps if time is taken. There are videos on removing animals from such traps on YouTube and I recommend watching a few for reference.
Thank you for your time reading this. I hope you have a wonderful day.
