How does the insect light trap catch insects?

The lamps used in insect traps emit special ultraviolet light.
Although the ultraviolet light is invisible to humans, it has the effect of attracting insects.

Insects are attracted by the light (ultraviolet light), and the insects flying around the lamp are captured with insect trapping tape.

MUSHI-PON’s insect trapping tape is coated on the surface with a sticky glue that is ideal for capturing insects.
It can capture even small insects easily.
