Electric Shock System: Suitable for building entrances or storage warehouses where strong performance is needed to eliminate large numbers of flying insects.
Insect Trap Placement Tips for Maximum Effectiveness (Near 100%)
Do not install it opposite direct sunlight: Natural light will compete with the UV light and reduce the trap’s ability to attract insects.
Recommended installation height: Mount the unit about 1.5–2 meters above the floor, which is the height range where flying insects are most commonly active.
Distance from the entrance: Install the unit 2–3 meters away from the doorway to intercept insects before they enter critical areas.

FAQ
Q: How is a glue-board insect trap better than an electric zapper trap?
