Clues for effective use of insect light traps
Asahi Industry Co.,Ltd.
Install near invasion entrances and habitat areas
Place insect light traps between the main entry points and the areas you are
trying to protect so that you intercept the pests before they reach the
critical areas.
Installed 2.0 m or less from the ground
Flying small insects cannot fly high; they fly around at a height of 2.0 m or
less. In addition, it is inconvenient to replace glue tapes attached to insect
light traps if they are installed at a high place.
Not leak out the light to outside through windows
If the light of the UV lamp leaks outside via windows, it invites insects
inside from outside.
Avoid installing near production lines
Insect light traps are designed to be attractive to flying insects and will
draw them towards the trap. You should keep insect traps as far away from the
areas you want to protect
Keep turning on 24hrs
Insects are more active in the night.
Light traps work more effectively when the other light devices are turned off.
The glue tapes should be changed regularly
You will know the level of hygiene by checking adhesive tapes regularly.
Change UV lamp by its proper replacement period even the light flashes
The amount of emitted UV rays start to go down to a lower level to draw
insects after the recommended useful life even the lamp will flashes. Changing
UV lamps in the proper period is important to use insect traps effectively.
Mushiponʼs glue tapea donʼt lose its capturing power even after long-
term storage.
Mushipon’s glue tape has a long life span, and can be used for 5 years
unopened, and for 2-3 years after opening without deterioration.
Pull out the tape slowly in cold season
The glue on the tapes becomes hard during cold weather, making them difficult
to pull out. Please store the tapes in a warm place or warm them up and pull
them out slowly.
Insect light trap’s lifespan is 40,000 hours
The lifetime of the built-in fluorescent lamp stabilization period is 40,000
hours. It is approximately 4.5 years.
