Flying insects such as the common house fly, wasps, midges etc. carry up to 4 million pathogenic bacteria. Their presence is totally unacceptable in areas where hygiene is paramount. Sylvania offer a wide range of UV-A lamps in various lengths and diameters to attract these insects. Sylvania lamps are utilised in many brands of insect traps. Micro-organisms such as bacteria, moulds, yeasts etc can be destroyed or removed by physical, biological, and chemical methods. UV-C radiation destroys or inactivates the micro organism so that it can no longer multiply. Our extensive range of germicidal and blacklight lamps are ideal for generating the right sterilising effect.
