Photo Album: Fly Light Shines Bright in Monroe Township, NJ
Filled with Flies
I returned to the restaurant to monitor the fly infestation. When I inspected the fly light, also called Insect Light Traps, I saw that it was filled with expired flies.
Insect Light Traps
These devices use an insect-attracting lamp to lure insects to an adhesive trapping glue board. They lure and capture virtually any flying insects such as house flies, bottle flies, mosquitoes, gnats, and moths.
Clean and Refresh
I cleaned out the fly light, properly disposed of all the expired flies, and replaced the glue boards with new ones.
Good as New
I reattached the fly light and, as a precaution, applied a fly bait around the recycling and garbage cans inside and outside the building. I scheduled a follow-up visit to monitor the infestation, replace the glue boards, and, if needed, apply any additional treatments.
