Electrocuting Flytraps

Selecting A Flytrap
Wall Mount, Ceiling Hung, or Portable?

Place wall mounted Flytraps down low to best catch day-flying insects like the housefly. Ceiling traps will catch flies; but it is the fly's nature to be below five feet high (even skimming the floor) when they are most responsive to flytraps. Generally speaking, the lower you place a trap, the more responsive flies will be to it.

Ceiling-hung Flytraps are the trap of choice for night-fliers (such as stored product moths). They have a tendency to fly at higher heights in buildings. However, night-fliers respond to light quicker and from farther distances than day-fliers and can usually be handled with a well designed system consisting primarily of low, wall-mounted flytraps. See Strategic Installation for exceptions.

Gilbert® 607 Hall Stalker
Ceiling-Hung Electrocuter
[607hall.gif]

The Hall StalkerTM features flush-mount capability for low-ceiling areas. Primarily for night-fliers, but fairly effective against flies in hallways and other confined areas when there is not space for a wall mount trap to be placed down low.

Sincere consideration should be given to the few richochet insects and microparticles that fall from ceiling hung traps versus the myriad of whole, live insects allowed access to the most critical areas of your facility, if the traps are not there. Consider low traps first.

Features two, superior, Sylvania F40/350BL (40 watt) Insect attractant lamps (Replace annually for continued performance). Beautifully finished in anodized aluminum with nickel-chrome plated guards that swing up for easy access to grid, reflective surfaces, and lamps for periodic cleaning and lamp replacement.

Gilbert® 605 Night Eagle
Our Most Powerful Ceiling-Hung Electrocuter
Printer Friendly 605 Cut Sheet PDF
[605ware.gif] Superior Effectiveness. The Night Eagle™ is the trap of choice for intercepting the wildest of night-flying insect problems in shipping, receiving, and warehouse areas. The large grid area is advantageous against night-fliers prone to large circular flight patterns. See Night Hawk™.

Sincere consideration should be given to the few richochet insects and microparticles that fall from ceiling hung traps versus the myriad of whole, live, insects allowed access to the most critical areas of your facility, if the traps are not there. Consider low traps first.

For example, instead of hanging it over the dock area, consider wall mounting the 605 in a strategic place. To do this, order the Gilbert® 605WD Wild Dragon™, our most powerful wall-mount electrocuting flytrap. (It features a large reflector for increased effectiveness when used as a wall-mount)

The Night EagleTM and the DragonTM feature two, superior, Sylvania F40/350BL (40 watt) Insect attractant lamps (Replace annually for continued performance). Beautifully finished in anodized aluminum with nickel-chrome plated guards that swing up for easy access to grid, reflective surfaces, and lamps for periodic cleaning and lamp replacement.
