Given that insects respond differently to wavelengths, Olefinas has developed different traps with the following properties:
Dimensions:every Guardian insect trap is produced with High or Low Polyethylene density with a 25µ to 102µ (1 mils to 4 mils) thickness and sizes according to the needs of the customer.
Colors: insects are not attracted equally by the same color, they respond to a specific tone represented by a wavelength, which has to be precise for the trap to be effective.
Each trap attracts different plague insects; this chart shows some plagues that are attracted by each color:
