How do UV insecticidal llamas work?
During the holiday season, mosquitoes can be a real nuisance limiting the pleasure of relaxing together. There are more and more UV lamps available on the market, which help to control the number of insects in the vicinity with the help of the emitted ultraviolet light. Below we explain the principle of operation of this type of device.
UV insecticidal lamps work by emitting ultraviolet light, which is a lure for many insects - especially young mosquitoes or flies. At the same time, the level of UV-A light emission is completely safe for humans. The insects are lured into the trap and then immobilized in various ways. Depending on the type of UV lamp, the insects can be:
- electrocuted (UV lamps, glaring),
- glued to the sticky insert (UV insecticidal sticky lamps),
- sucked into the device (UV lamps, insecticidal lamps, fan lamps).
Glaring insecticidal lamps
This is one of the most effective solutions in the fight against unwanted insects. Insects attracted by UV light end up on a live grille that shocks the insects. Most of the devices are secured with an additional external grille, which makes it completely safe for humans and pets.

Sticky insecticidal lamps
The basic principle of operation is analogous to that of other UV lamps - insects are attracted to the lamp by ultraviolet light. However, the method of immobilizing the insect is different. For this purpose, sticky inserts are used, to which insects stick. These types of solutions guarantee greater hygiene of use. The insect is also neutralized without unnecessary sounds.
Fan insecticidal lamps
In this case, the insects are sucked into the lamp by means of a special fan. The insects are locked in a mounted container that prevents them from escaping. This solution also guarantees high hygiene.
Where and when to use UV lamps?
It is best to start using UV lamps before the season, as young insects are the most susceptible to UV light. It is also worth having the UV lamp turned on in the area of the hatchery, e.g. mosquitoes, which will allow you to limit the population of insects that appear. Mosquitoes will also not multiply intensively.
It is good if UV lamps are installed in semi-shade, which will allow you to eliminate insects also during the day. Both daylight and moonlight, as well as other light emitted by humans, can affect the effectiveness of the lamp.
