Asecure method to protect crops from insect pests without using chemical pesticides.Traps adult insects of both sex thus eliminating chance of their breeding. Completely safe No. Pollution, no harmful effects.Option to use multiple type of lights, e.g.Bulb CFL, Mercury Bulb etc. Depending upon specific crop pests.Economical, only one unit sufficient for 1-2 acre crop area. Consume very less electricity.Almost zero maintenance.
Robust and Weather-Resistant ConstructionEngineered for the outdoors, the light trap features a powder-coated steel frame, polycarbonate shield, and galvanized or aluminum tray, all designed to prevent rust and withstand weather. The IP44 rating ensures protection against dust, rain splash, and adverse field conditions, providing year-round reliability for farmers and researchers.
Efficient Moth Attraction and TrappingThe mercury vapor bulb emits both ultraviolet and visible wavelengths, scientifically proven to attract nocturnal moths. A well-designed reflector maximizes light dispersal, increasing the traps reach up to one acre, depending on installation. The moths are safely collected in a reusable mechanical tray, facilitating easy monitoring and disposal.
User-Friendly Installation and OperationWith a simple hook or stand for flexible hanging on poles or branches, the trap is easy to set up in farming fields, storage warehouses, or research stations. The 3-5 meter insulated power cable allows safe and convenient connection to mains power. Mechanical operation means maintenance is straightforward, and theres no need for chemicals or digital calibration.
FAQs of Light Trap For Moth With Mercury Bulb:
Q: How does the Light Trap for Moth with Mercury Bulb effectively attract and trap moths?
A: This trap uses a 125W or 160W mercury vapor bulb that emits ultraviolet and visible light, which are highly attractive to nocturnal moths. Once lured by the light, moths are collected in a mechanical tray where they can be monitored or removed.
Q: What installation options are available for this trap?
A: The trap is equipped with a hook or a stand, allowing it to be easily hung from a pole, tree branch, or mounted on a stand, providing flexible deployment in various agricultural or warehouse environments.
Q: Where should I install the trap for optimal coverage?
A: Install the trap in open areas approximately 1.52 meters above ground to maximize attraction and coverage. Avoid obstructions and place it away from competing light sources for the best results, as it covers up to 1 acre depending on field conditions.
Q: Is the trap safe to use around people and livestock?
A: Yes, safety is a priority. The lamp chamber is enclosed, and a protective grill prevents accidental contact. All electrical components are insulated, conforming to splash and dust-resistant standards (IP44), ensuring safe operation for agricultural and research use.
Q: What maintenance is required for the moth light trap?
A: Regularly clean the collection tray and check the bulbs condition. With an average lamp life of 20003000 hours, occasionally replacing the bulb ensures consistent performance. The rust-resistant materials and mechanical design make maintenance simple and straightforward.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this light trap compared to chemical controls?
A: This trap is environmentally friendly and chemical-free, minimizing ecological impact and non-target effects. Its efficiency in attracting multiple moth species makes it suitable for routine monitoring and pest control while protecting crops and stored grains.
