A light source attracts insects to an electrical grid, where they are electrocuted by touching two wires with a high voltage between them. The name stems from the characteristic zap sound produced when an insect is electrocuted.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePlus Zap Bug Zappers utilise ultraviolet tubes to attract flying insects into the product, before zapping them dead on a high voltage killing grid. UV tubes attract flying insects by emitting a wavelength of light attractive to flies. Flying insects are attracted to the tube which emits UV at a level comparable to that of the sun, which the flying insect has a natural attraction to as a source of heat.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the flying insect has been killed, the Plus Zap Bug Zapper will retain the dead insect in a catch tray to allow hygienic disposal.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003ePlus Zap Bug Zappers are ideal for use in commercial backroom, commercial front of house and industrial backroom areas.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe second generation Plus Zap Bug Zapper range offers a contemporary aesthetic combined with high specification features, creating a stylish killing grid range ideal for commercial environments.

As a general rule the higher up they are the less effective. In a working environment the ideal height would be between two and two and a half metres from the ground. At this height the risk of the Plus Zap Bug Zapper units being damaged by moving trolleys or forklift trucks is reduced whilst maintaining maximum efficiency. They will also be easier to clean and maintain.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eThe ideal location is at right angles to the major light source in the room.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePlus Zap Bug Zapper units must not be sited so that the light source is obscured (if flying insects cannot see it the unit will not be very effective).\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eSite between potential entry points and production areas to intercept pests before they reach sensitive areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDo not rely on area of coverage of a particular Plus Zap Bug Zapper unit as the only criteria for choosing and installing fly zappers. There are several factors that need to be considered before deciding on the appropriate number and size of units to be installed. These would include the number of entry points including doors, windows and any other openings for instance for pipe work or extractor fans. What is the volume of human traffic through the area to be protected? What would be the normal flying insect population? What is being produced? And where is the facility located? If it is close by a lake or a rubbish tip then there will be a greater risk than if the facility is in the middle of an industrial estate.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePlus Zap Bug Zapper should not be installed in areas where they can be affected by air currents. Avoid areas close to air conditioning vents or where draughts may be a problem. This is because flying insects on the whole do not like moving air and Plus Zap Bug Zapper units placed in these areas may be less efficient.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003ePlus Zap Bug Zapper units are often placed directly in front of doorways - the logic of the installer being that this is where the insects enter and so they will be more easily caught. In fact this will only encourage insects to enter and make the problem worse. It is better to install Plus Zap Bug Zapper units off to the side of doorways ensuring as much as possible that the light does not shine out of the open door.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eNever ever install Plus Zap Bug Zapper units directly above a processing line or food preparation area. The Ultra Violet lamps are highly attractive to flying insects and will attract the insects to those areas. Better to install the Plus Zap Bug Zapper units away from sensitive areas to attract the insects and kill them away from the critical areas to be protected.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003cli\u003eDon’t forget to change the lamps every 12 months – preferably just before the start of the fly season.\u003c\/li\u003e\r\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\r\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg alt=\"Fly Map\" height=\"341\" src=\"2\/media\/wysiwyg\/Flymap.jpg\" title=\"Fly Map\" width=\"500\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Insect-o-Matic","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44992507478306,"sku":"ZE121","price":199.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0743\/1569\/4370\/products\/Plus_Zap_16W_-web-_2.jpg?v=1688458264","url":"https:\/\/www.easypestsupplies.com.au\/products\/plus-zap-bug-zapper-16w","provider":"Easy Pest Supplies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
