Electric Fly Killer: Catching Flies with Power and Light
An electric fly killer attracts flies and other flying insects with UV light. Depending on the model, they end up on a high-voltage grid or a glue board. The unit works around the clock, without any spray mist or smell. That makes an electric fly trap especially suitable for areas where hygiene matters: the milking parlour, feed room, farm shop, kitchen or stable office.
Grid or Glue Board: Choosing the Right Principle
Units with a high-voltage grid, such as the Halley LED 30 or 40 in blue or green, the Kerbl MiniKill or the EcoKill LED, kill insects instantly on contact. They are ideal for stables, workshops and storerooms. Where food is left uncovered, a trap with a glue board like the HaftKill is the better choice, because the insects stick to the board and nothing drops down. You will find matching replacement tubes and glue boards here too.
Fan, Solar and Ultrasound
The CIT UV insect trap with a fan draws the attracted insects into a collecting container and works poison-free in rooms up to 40 m². For outdoor use there is the CIT Outdoor solar insect trap, which recharges itself during the day. The cit wasp and fly repeller with rechargeable battery and the Kerbl UltraStop Fly with ultrasound keep insects at a distance without catching them. So there is a solution for every room.
Frequently asked questions
Where is the best place for an electric fly killer?
Hang it where little other light competes with it, so not right by a window or under bright lamps. Above work surfaces with food, only use a unit with a glue board.
When should I replace the UV tube?
UV tubes lose their attraction long before they visibly dim. It is best to replace them once a year before the fly season begins.
Is an electric fly killer safe in the stable?
Yes, the grid sits behind a protective guard so that fingers and animal muzzles cannot reach it. Still, hang the unit out of the animals' reach and clean the collecting tray regularly.
Electric Fly Traps for Stable, Kitchen and Farm Shop
Electric fly killers are a clean, quiet solution for rooms where you would rather not use sprays. The UV light attracts flies, mosquitoes and moths, and a high-voltage grid or a glue board holds them. Units with a grid suit the stable, workshop and storeroom, while models with a glue board are made for the kitchen, the sales area or the milk room, where nothing must fall down. Traps with a fan draw insects into a container and work without a grid, and solar traps catch them outdoors on the patio or at the stable entrance. When choosing, consider the size of the room, do not hang the trap right next to bright lamps or windows and change the UV tubes every year. That keeps the attraction strong and the trap catching reliably all season.
