Flies in a game larder are not a nuisance, they are a contamination problem. Eazyzap make commercial glue-board units, which is the right pattern for anywhere carcasses or food are handled.
Glue board, not electric grid
An electrocuting grid kills the insect and then scatters it. A glue board attracts the fly to UV light and holds it on the board, so nothing drops onto the bench below. That is why glue boards are the standard in commercial food areas and the sensible choice over a larder rail or a butchery table.
What is held
- Eazyzap Commercial LED Glue Board Fly Killer - rated for 100 square metres of coverage.
- Replacement glue paper - six-pack.
- Replacement LED tube - for the glue board units.
Running it properly
The consumables are the whole job. A glue board that is full stops working, and a UV tube loses output long before it stops lighting up, so both want changing on a schedule rather than when someone notices. Keep spares in - a unit with a full board is just a light.
