Tips & FAQ's
-
Is the SilenTrap™ a bug zapper?
No. The SilenTrap™ quietly captures common flying insects
on a disposable glue board within the unit - without zapping.

-
Why is the SilenTrap™ a better alternative than a typical zapper?
 The SilenTrap™ eliminates the annoying buzz and unhygienic mess that
typical zappers create. When bugs hit the electrical grids of zappers and
then explode, insect particles pollute the air in your home and fall onto
surrounding surfaces.​​ Trapping insects on the adhesive board is a safe,
clean and non-toxic alternative.
