PP2218
80m2
ULTRAVIOLET TUBE
2 x 15 WATTS
Model No.: PP2218

The Mosquito Killer Trap, Insect Repellent PP2218, is the largest of its range and
covers the biggest area of 80 square metres, which is ideal for being placed
unobstrusively in a balcony, veranda or patio. The other two appliances in this range,
which appear similar in design and function include PP2214, covering 40 square
metres, and PP2213, covering 60 square metres.
This appliance is used to attract flying insects such as flies, moths & mosquitoes.
When these pests encounter the high voltage electric grids, they will be
electrocuted instantly. The UV-light tubes are completely harmless to humans and
pets. It does not emit fumes, odour or harmful chemicals, unlike insecticide sprays,
which can be deadly to pets and young children, or anyone allergic to the chemicals
contained in it.
The Mosquito Killer Trap, Insect Repellent PP2218 is efficient as well as
aesthetically pleasing. The router mesh protects humans and pets from touching the
high tension grids.
The appliance is suitable for indoor use and should either be placed on a dry,
horizontal surface or suspended from the Hooks attached to the top of the
appliance on the chain provided, suspended from ceilings, away from small children
and pets for their safety.
