MYTHS and MISCONCEPTIONS:
MYTH: Insect light traps need little attention once they are installed....except to occasionally change the glue boards.
Other information about light traps:
Light traps should be serviced and cleaned once per month to make sure the glue boards are not filled with dead insects. If this is the case, the chances of getting the full benefit of the traps are negligible.
Traps should be cleaned, glue boards replaced and reflective surfaces washed and cleaned in order to be successful in insect population reduction.
The black light bulbs (they actually cast a bluish hazy light which attracts insects) should be replaced on a yearly basis to maintain a strong beam.
Light traps are superior to insect killers which use electricity to kill insects, if, as previously stated, the glue boards are replaced as necessary and the light traps are cleaned regularly.
Electrocution insect killers often cause the insect to explode, showering the surrounding area with insect parts. They are not recommended for restaurants or food prep areas.
