Electronic Pest Control
PRODUCT RANGE AND QUALITY FLY CONTROL UNITS
There are two main types of electric fly control units on the market - Electronic Fly Killers and Electronic Sticky Trap units. Both use Ultraviolet light from special tubes to attract flying insects.
Electronic Fly Killers
Kill the insects by electrocuting them as they fly through a high-voltage killing grid. As the insects come into contact with the grid, the current passes through their body instantly killing it. The dead insect is caught in a tray suspended immediately below the grid.
Electronic Sticky Traps
Catch the flying insects on a sticky board where they quickly die. Sticky traps have many advantages, such as silent operation, lower cost, ease of installation and the ability to keep the boards for permanent record purposes. They are also more effective against the smaller sizes of flying insects.
Servicing Units
One of the main reasons why fly control units need to be replaced is that they are not kept clean. Make sure a maintenance or cleaning program is put in place or employ a pest control company to do this for you.
BPC units can be maintained without removing screws or using tools, making them easier and quicker to service. All parts are easy to remove providing easy access to change the UV tubes.
Tube life
Ultraviolet light is invisible to humans and deteriorates over a short period of time, usually around 12 months. Blue light will still be omitted from the tube, but this will not attract the insects.
Just because a tube lights up, doesn't mean that it is producing enough of the correct range of UV to attract flying insects. It is therefore important to change tubes at least every 12 months, preferably at the onset of warmer weather.
Shatterproof tubes
In some environments, especially in food preparation areas, foreign matter such as broken glass is highly undesirable. In these areas, it is necessary to use shatterproof tubes.
Fully Trained
Our staff are fully trained to assess the type of flying insect problem you are experiencing and advise on the type, model, siting and number of units you may need.
Most units can be connected to an existing electrical supply. Where units may be required at a distance from an existing electrical supply any additional electrical work required is the responsibility of the client.
