The traps have a rigid, stable construction. They can be placed on horizontal and vertical surfaces. It is recommended to avoid placing them in areas

With high dust levels, as this may accelerate deactivation of the adhesive surface responsible for trapping insects and thus shorten the effective time of trapping. Used under normal conditions, traps remain effective for up to 3 months and it is recommended to replace them monthly. The traps remain effective in a temperature range of 5–50°C.
