We're seeking advice, technical guidance and wisdom borne from experience regarding the optimal locations for our UV light traps. We are discussing with our pest control vendor ways of improving the locations for our UV light traps. The field rep. for our vendor stated that the ideal height for UV light traps is six to seven feet above the floor because - according to the rep. and I'm paraphrasing - that is the level at which most museum pests fly. We like the services our pest control vendor and our field rep., provide. They are very responsive to our needs. However, we must get more prevention from our UV light traps and would appreciate hearing the group's collective wisdom regarding optimal locations. Is there any truth to the fly height? Is there a standard height from the floor to mount UV light traps? Please contact me off-list if necessary. Many thanks.
