{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"FAQPage","mainEntity":[{"@type":"Question","name":"Which insect killer is best for restaurants and food units?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Glue-pad UV insect catchers are best for FSSAI- and HACCP-compliant kitchens. They trap flies silently without scattering insect parts, which is critical for food safety audits. Electric zappers are not allowed inside food preparation areas."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are electric zappers still useful?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Yes — electric zappers are the right choice for warehouses, loading bays, garbage rooms, and outdoor verandas where audible \"zaps\" are acceptable and food contact is not a risk."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How many UV insect traps do I need per area?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"A standard rule for Indian conditions is one 30-W UV glue-pad unit per 80–100 m² in food processing and 120 m² in offices and retail. Place units 1.8–2.2 m above floor, away from competing light sources and direct sun."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"How often should I change UV tubes and glue pads?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"UV tubes lose 60% of their attracting wavelength after 9 months even if they still glow — replace once a year, ideally before the monsoon. Glue pads should be changed every 2–4 weeks in summer and monthly in winter."}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Are these insect killers safe around children and patients?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"UV glue-pad catchers are safe for hospitals, schools, daycares, and pharmacies because they use no electric grid and emit no chemicals. Electric zappers should be installed at heights above 2 m and never in patient or child areas."}}]}
