Industrial Glue Board Fly Traps
Industrial UV insect traps are professional glue board systems for controlling flies, mosquitoes, moths and other flying insects in food industry, bakeries, warehouses, production rooms, packaging areas, industrial kitchens, agricultural and livestock facilities and professional sites.
Unlike a domestic or decorative mosquito lamp, an industrial insect light trap is designed for more demanding use: higher insect pressure, regular maintenance, professional installation and spaces where hygiene and flying insect control are especially important.
At BirdGard Iberia you will find industrial UV insect traps with glue boards, a solution especially suitable for food-related environments because it captures insects without scattering remains. Choose between ProFly Mural, ProFly Industrial and ProFly Captor according to installation type, coverage and monitoring needs.

UV insect traps for the food industry
The food industry needs flying insect control solutions that are effective, hygienic and easy to inspect. In food handling, production, packaging or storage areas, we normally recommend glue board insect light traps rather than electric grid devices.
The glue board retains captured insects and avoids scattering remains. It also helps with regular inspection, capture monitoring and maintenance within hygiene, HACCP or pest control programmes.
Industrial UV insect traps can be used in bakeries, butcheries, industrial kitchens, production rooms, packaging areas, raw material stores, technical corridors and other professional spaces where flying insects may enter or be present.
Industrial UV insect traps, HACCP and flying insect control
Industrial UV insect traps can form part of a flying insect control plan within hygiene programmes, HACCP procedures, internal audits or pest control plans in food businesses.
The device, location, number of units and maintenance frequency should be adapted to the building, insect flow, entry points, food presence and the company's own control plan.
Glue board versus electric grid in professional areas
Searches often mix terms such as industrial UV insect trap, industrial fly killer, mosquito lamp and insect zapper. The key difference is the capture system.
- Industrial UV insect trap with glue board: attracts insects with UV light and captures them on an adhesive board.
- Electric fly killer or insect zapper: attracts insects with UV light and kills them with an electric grid.
In food industry, bakeries and food handling areas, the glue board is usually more appropriate because it avoids scattering insect remains. Electric fly killers and insect zappers may make sense at entrances, passageways or areas without direct food handling, but they are not the first option for production or food preparation rooms.
Industrial UV insect traps for warehouses and facilities
Warehouses and industrial facilities may have high flying insect pressure due to goods movement, open doors, loading bays, indoor lighting, waste areas, moisture or stored raw materials.
- entrance and exit doors;
- loading and unloading bays;
- waste or organic matter areas;
- circulation corridors;
- raw material storage;
- areas near production or packaging;
- points where recurring captures are detected.
Why choose an industrial UV insect trap
- Professional use: suitable for work, production, storage and handling areas.
- Greater robustness: designed for continuous operation in demanding facilities.
- Glue board capture: hygienic and inspectable, especially useful in food environments.
- Easy maintenance: regular replacement of glue boards, UV tubes or UV bulbs according to model.
- Different coverage options: select the model according to surface and insect pressure.
- Professional placement: wall-mounted, open or adapted to real insect routes.
ProFly Mural: wall-mounted industrial UV insect trap
ProFly Mural is an industrial wall-mounted UV insect trap. It is suitable when you need a robust, professional unit with different coverage options and a controlled wall installation.
It can fit corridors, warehouses, passage areas, bakeries, auxiliary rooms, work spaces and areas where a wall-mounted glue board system is preferred.
ProFly Industrial: open design to maximise captures
ProFly Industrial is an industrial UV insect trap with an open design, intended to maximise insect entry and capture in professional environments.
It can be suitable for warehouses, facilities, bakeries, agricultural or livestock areas, production rooms and spaces with significant fly or flying insect pressure.
ProFly Captor: double-sided glue board
ProFly Captor is an industrial UV insect trap with a double-sided glue board. This makes it interesting for professional control, capture monitoring and environments where capture pressure needs to be reviewed easily.
It can fit production areas, warehouses, large rooms, food industry sites and facilities where visual inspection is part of the maintenance routine.
Industrial versus decorative UV insect traps
Decorative UV insect traps are intended for customer-facing areas such as restaurants, bars, cafes, hotels, receptions, clinics, offices or shops. They prioritise appearance and discretion.
Industrial UV insect traps are intended for working environments: food industry, bakeries, production, packaging, warehouses, facilities and agricultural or livestock areas. They prioritise strength, coverage, maintenance and professional control.
When to choose special protection
In some environments, a standard industrial UV insect trap may not be enough. If the area has high moisture, dust, frequent washing, aggressive conditions or specific technical requirements, check special protection UV insect traps.
Maintenance: glue boards, UV tubes and bulbs
Maintenance is essential. An industrial UV insect trap loses performance if glue boards are full, dirty, dusty or have lost adhesion. UV tubes or UV bulbs should also be checked and replaced according to the model and usage time.
In spare parts, replacement glue boards and UV tubes you can find compatible parts for ProFly equipment. Always check the exact model before buying a replacement.
What affects the price of an industrial UV insect trap?
- Coverage: larger areas or higher insect pressure require more capable equipment.
- Device design: wall-mounted, open, suspended or double-sided glue board.
- Materials and robustness: professional environments need more resistant equipment.
- Number and type of UV tubes: influences attraction and later maintenance.
- Glue board type: size, accessibility, double-sided design and replacement frequency.
- Site conditions: moisture, dust, washing or special requirements may call for another range.
Where to place an industrial UV insect trap
- Place it on insect routes, internal entrances or circulation points.
- Avoid direct competition with sunlight or very strong lights.
- Do not install it directly above production lines, exposed food or preparation surfaces.
- Consider doors, loading bays, waste, damp zones and goods entry points.
- Keep it accessible for changing glue boards and UV tubes.
- In large facilities, consider several units distributed strategically.
What to avoid
- Do not choose only by price.
- Do not use electric grid devices in food handling areas.
- Do not install the unit directly above food or production lines.
- Do not forget compatible glue boards and UV tubes.
- Do not use a decorative model where an industrial unit is needed.
- Do not ignore moisture, dust, wash-down or special technical requirements.
