Selecting An Insect Light Trap (ILT)
Wall Mount, Ceiling Hung, or Portable?
Generally speaking, place wall mounted ILTs 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 ILTs. The lower you place a trap, the more responsive flies will be to it.
Ceiling-hung ILTs may be necessary in some circumstances, but night-fliers (the insects you see navigating insanely around lights at night) are also naturally more responsive to our UV attractant lamps than flies. In food plants and pharmaceutical laboratories, both type insects can usually be handled with a well designed system consisting primarily of low, wall-mounted ILTs.
See Strategic Installation for exceptions.
