Product Features

Flies are extremely sensitive to UV light, and we have utilised this by integrating UV LEDs, which are invisible to the human eye but attract flies, alongside visible blue LEDs.

UV and Visible Blue LED

UV LEDs emit a wavelength that attracts insects. Visible Blue LEDs indicate that the lamp is clearly on and working
