In the presented studies it was found that tested natural essential oils are not attractive to sciarid flies (Sciaridae). In the majority of cases, on the sticky traps with the addition of aromatic substances a statistically insignificant drop of the number of trapped insects was recorded when compared with control combination. A significant decrease of trapped imagines (53.28 percent) in comparison to the control was found on yellow sticky traps with the addition of ginger oil. The results have demonstrated that ginger oil had a repellent effect on sciarid flies
