What type of insects does this trap effectively?
This unit is designed to attract and capture common flying insects such as flies, gnats, fruit flies, and moths.

Troubleshooting
Unit not attracting insects
Ensure the 21W LED light is functioning. Check if the glue board is clean and sticky; replace if necessary. Position the unit away from competing light sources or strong drafts.
Insects are escaping the glue board
The glue board may be saturated or old. Replace with a fresh glue board. Ensure the unit's housing is closed securely to prevent escape.
