Food contamination risks

Flying insects are a major source of contamination. They live and breed in dirty conditions and are highly mobile.They also benefit from the apathy of customers, who will tolerate the presence of a few flies while they will not accept the presence of a single cockroach.

A recent PCO survey showed that flying insects pose a greater risk to food premises than do cockroaches, rats and mice combined. Yet the food industry spends far more on crawling insect and rodent control than it does on fly control.

Flying insect control is a part of HACCP, "due diligence" and good food hygiene practice.

The Pests Act and the new FDA 1999 Food Code states:

"Insects and other pests are capable of transmitting disease to man by contaminating food and food-contact surfaces. Effective measures must be taken to control their presence in food establishments".

Fly control is a legal requirement in restaurants and an absolute necessity in food production and packaging plants.

Electronic Sticky Traps

Catch the flying insects on a sticky board where they quickly die. Sticky traps have many advantages, such as silent operation, lower cost, ease of installation and the ability to keep the boards for permanent record purposes. They are also more effective against the smaller sizes of flying insects.

The PestWest Sundew Mirage Electronic Sticky trap range are fitted with some of the largest sized glue boards on the market. This is due to the introduction of the patented PestWest sleeves. These sleeves stop the UV light emitted by the tubes from drying the glue used on the board, making them more effective at controlling all sizes of flying insects for longer, up-to 8 weeks, dependant on level of insect infestation.

The sleeves also allows the units to be ultra-slim in design as the boards can be positioned closer to the tubes (excludes Uplight unit)

Ultraviolet light is invisible to humans and deteriorates over a short period of time, usually around 12 months.

Blue light will still be emitted from the tube, but this will not attract the insects.

Just because a tube lights up, doesn't mean that it is producing enough of the correct range of UV to attract flying insects.

It is therefore important to change tubes at least every 12 months, preferably at the onset of warmer weather.
