Understanding & Solving the
Flying Insect Problem
Because there are so many different species and their behavior subject to so many different influences; flying insect control is not a simple problem. Just hanging a few professional Insect Light Traps (ILTs) up at random will not automatically solve it.

Gilbert® Professional Insect Light Traps are the finest ILTs made. They catch an amazing number
of flying insects from a wide range of species, and provide a much needed, non-chemical addition to pest management. Their use in such sensitive locations as food plants, pharmaceutical laboratories, and hospitals is essential. However, they must be used properly to be effective.

First, identify the problem pests that need to be controlled and/or monitored. An initial ILT survey
may be helpful. These surveys almost always turn up more insects and species than were thought to be present in a facility.

Then all conditions contributing to a problem must be identified and corrected. These can include the type and position of lighting, location of trash disposal facilities, sanitation and chemical procedures, inadequate physical barriers, the ecology of the surrounding area and more.

Once the insect population has been reduced by corrective measures, the proper equipment can be positioned to deal with the insects that remain. Care must be taken to select and install ILTs correctly. Cutting corners and good flying insect control do not co-exist.

With this catalog, we have endeavored to make choosing and using Gilbert® Insect Light Traps easier and more effective than ever. Reading pages 4-5 will give you a good, basic intoduction.
