Directions for use | Set up the unlocked trap in a location where it will remain cyclically exposed to sunlight. In places without access to sunlight, the L-trap should be deployed together with the SOLARIS illuminator. | |
Operating principle | The trap is equipped with two phosphorescent plates. When energized with light, the plates emit green light with a wavelength of 520Nm. Green light of this wavelength particularly intensively attracts insects with nocturnal activity characteristics. Nocturnal insects navigate with light sources available to them using, for example, phosphorescent light emitted by fungi, reflected light emitted by the moon, etc. Insects attracted by light from plates stick to adhesive surfaces. Fully charged plates form points of light that are visible for up to 12h after they are fully exposed. | |
