Advanced Flying Insect Control Technologies

Different environments require distinct pest control strategies to satisfy UK environmental health standards. We stock two primary commercial-grade systems to match your business requirements:

  • Glue Board Fly Killers: The gold standard for front-of-house hospitality, dining rooms, and commercial kitchens where silent, discreet operation is essential. These units utilise high-output UVA lamps to attract insects and entrap them cleanly on a hidden adhesive board, preventing any risk of airborne contamination.
  • Electric Grid Fly Killers: Engineered for heavy-duty back-of-house areas, waste management spaces, and large food storage facilities. These systems use high-voltage grids to instantly eliminate flying pests upon attraction, collecting them safely in a removable, easy-to-clean base tray.

FAQs

  • What is the difference between a glue board and an electric grid fly killer?

    Glue board fly killers catch insects silently on an internal adhesive sheet, making them perfect for sensitive food preparation zones and restaurant dining rooms because they completely eliminate the risk of fragments falling. Electric grid fly killers use a high-voltage grid to zap insects instantly, collecting them in a tray below. These are ideal for heavy-duty storage areas, warehouses, or back-of-house operations where silent operation is less critical.

  • Where is the best place to install a commercial fly killer?

    For maximum efficacy, mount your fly killer away from competing light sources like windows or bright overhead lights. Position the unit between potential entry points (such as doors or windows) and the area you want to protect. In commercial kitchens, install the unit at a height where it can be easily serviced, ensuring it is not placed directly over open food preparation surfaces.

  • What are shatter-resistant lamps and why are they important?

    Shatter-resistant lamps feature a protective fluoropolymer (FEP) coating designed to contain glass shards and chemical phosphors in the event of an accidental bulb breakage. These are mandatory in strict food manufacturing, commercial kitchen, and processing environments to prevent glass contamination from entering the food supply chain.

  • How often should the UV lamps and glue boards be replaced?

    While the blue light emitted by UVA lamps can last for years, the invisible UV radiation that actually attracts flying insects degrades over time. Lamps should be replaced annually, ideally in early spring before peak insect season begins. Glue boards should be inspected regularly and typically replaced every four to eight weeks, or more frequently during heavy summer infestations.

  • Do your professional fly killers come with a warranty?

    Yes. Our premium UK-manufactured fly killers are built to strict commercial standards and come with an industry-leading 5-year warranty (excluding consumable components like lamps and glue boards). This provides long-term reliability and total peace of mind for business operators and facility managers managing commercial properties.
