Irresistibly attractive…

Abiotec process

Abiotec’s devices eliminate flying insects in total safety without use of chemical products and with radical efficiency.

The process used exploits a natural phenomenon observed scientifically: insects have eyes made up of many facets which are particularly sensitive to ultra-violet light.

Glue board or electrocuting grid?

Models with glue board:

With this system, insects irresistibly attracted by the UV-A light end up on a board coated with glue specially designed for this purpose. Highly-rated by more and more users, insect control devices using glue boards have a number of advantages:

5

No noise, no smell

5

Captures all flying insects, even the smallest

5

Hygienic, no risk of spatter of residues from the burnt insects

5

The trap stays clean

5

Easy to count the number of insects

5

Insect species may be identified

5

No risk of fire, no sparks

High-voltage grid models:

On contact with the bars of the electric grid located at the centre of the insect control device, the insects are electrocuted and fall into a recovery tray.

Drawbacks:

5

Fire hazard (spark)

5

Insects thrown out of the trap during electrocution

5

Residues from pulverised insects in the air (cross-contamination)

5

Unpleasant noise and smell

5

Counting difficult and inaccurate

5

Impossible to identify the insects caught

Operation of a two-stage insect killer:

5

An irresistible light source attracts the insects

This trapping technique most often uses lamps transmitting UV-A ultraviolet at 368 nm (harmless to humans) to attract all flying insects which are highly sensitive to this light source. The role of the light is only to attract the insects, it does not kill them.

5

Capture

Once in the device, the insects are trapped, depending on the model, either by a high-voltage grid or by a glue board.

Support in your battle against insect pests

From design to delivery



STEP 1

Free layout study

Ask us to pay a visit or send us a drawing of the area to be protected or audited, our specialists will carry out a location study for insect pest control devices free of charge. On-site or remotely.



STEP 2

Sizing of the installation

Abiotec’s design specialists will work out which model will achieve the desired protection target after the insect control devices have been installed. To do this, they take into account various parameters such as the activity in the area to be protected, surface area, accesses, etc.



STEP 3

Manufacture

Once the study and design have been produced and all specifications approved, the devices enter production. A permanent stock of devices is available in the event of an emergency. The technical business representative in charge of the project monitors the manufacture and shipping of the equipment to delivery on-site.



STEP 4

Quality tests

Each trap is tested a number of times throughout the manufacturing process, and undergoes a final test before shipment.



STEP 5

After-sales service

A large and permanent stock of spare parts is available to you in under 24 h. Lamps, glue boards, starters, ballasts, threaded fasteners, etc. A team of technicians is on hand to support you at any time.
