Indoor Fly Control Guide|Science of Physical Insect Traps

Introduction:
Over 75% households report fly infestations during summer. This guide explores non-toxic solutions through physics-based technologies, revealing how modern traps outperform chemical sprays.

Why Flies Invade Your Home?

Research from Entomological Society of America shows:

  • Fruit flies detect ethanol 0.5km away

  • 1mg food residue attracts 200+ gnats

  • CO2 from breathing draws mosquitoes within 10m radius

3 Principles of Physical Trapping

  1. Phototaxis Effect: 365nm wavelength attracts 4x more flies

  2. Vortex Capture: Dual-fan systems achieve 98% retention rate

  3. Barrier Defense: 0.6mm mesh blocks 95% airborne pests

Choosing Effective Fly Traps

  • LED grids should emit <2% IR radiation

  • Look for 15W minimum airflow (tested per AHAM standards)

  • Opt for dishwasher-safe collection trays

  • Certifications: FCC, CE, RoHS compliant
