How Do Electronic Fly Killers Work?
While science still isn’t totally sure why flies are drawn to ultraviolet (UV) light. This is due to their association with food, safety and navigation through emitting. The same UV rays that appear in sunlight.
Our electric fly killers attract these flying pests from the UV light emitted. Flies are drawn to the fly killer and zapped with high voltage electricity. And if your fly killer has a sticky board fitted, they will be trapped. Fortunately, the UV light emitted is invisible to the human eye. This makes it a non-intrusive and non-disruptive option for a variety of environments. For those thinking about a cost-effective option to your pest control problem, UV bulbs are typically much cheaper to run than your standard LED bulbs. Saving you money and using up much less energy.
Where Can I Install an Electronic Fly Killer?
When it comes to electric fly killers, the location is a massive consideration. We’ll need to make sure the light isn’t blocked by clutter, doors, or any other furniture, as most fly zappers work using UV light. Typically we believe that the most effective location for your fly zapper is usually on the tops of counters, a wall-mounting fix or suspension from the ceiling. This ensures that you have sufficient elevation so your electric fly killer can cover as much of the room as possible. Another consideration will be the lighting of the room – if the UV rays from the sun are stronger in your environment (e.g. a conservatory) you may need a version in which the bulbs emit a stronger UV light.
