Insect Protection

Choose the Right Insect Protection

There are several ways to reduce problems with mosquitoes and other insects. Some products are designed to keep insects away, while others capture them or prevent them from entering the premises.

The most suitable insect protection depends primarily on which insects you want to protect against and whether the product will be used indoors or outdoors.

Mosquito Protection for Outdoor Use

For patios, outdoor seating areas, and other outdoor environments, there are dedicated mosquito protection products designed to reduce mosquito activity nearby.

One example is the Thermacell MR300, which uses mosquito repellent mats and a gas cartridge to create a protection zone that helps keep mosquitoes at a distance.

Always follow the product instructions and intended use. Products containing active substances may only be used according to their approved conditions of use.

Electronic Repellents for Mosquitoes and Spiders

Electronic repellents are another option. The range includes models from Silverline designed specifically for mosquitoes or spiders.

Different models are intended for different applications. Check which insects the product is designed for, the recommended coverage area, and whether it is intended for indoor or outdoor use.

Keep in mind that repellents do not work in the same way as traps. They are designed to deter or disturb insects rather than capture them.

Insect Screens for Doors and Windows

An insect screen is a simple way to reduce the risk of flying insects entering when doors and windows are open.

They can be particularly useful in staff areas, offices, storage rooms, and other spaces where ventilation is needed without allowing large numbers of insects inside.

At Tingstad, you'll find insect screens for both doors and windows. Check the dimensions and installation instructions before choosing a model.

Electric Mosquito Traps

Unlike mosquito repellents and deterrents, a mosquito trap is designed to attract and capture insects.

The range includes an electric mosquito trap from Tristar. Check the product information to see which insects it is designed to target and where it can be used.

If you need other solutions for catching flying insects, you'll also find light traps at Tingstad.

What Should You Consider When Choosing Insect Protection?

Start by identifying the problem you want to solve:

• Do you want to prevent insects from entering? Consider insect screens.
• Do you need protection against mosquitoes outdoors? Review the intended use of mosquito protection products.
• Would you like to try an electronic repellent? Check which insects and environments the model is designed for.
• Do you want to capture insects? Choose a trap or mosquito trap suited to your needs.

Also check whether the product requires a power connection, batteries, or consumables.

For businesses with recurring insect problems, it may also be worthwhile to investigate how insects are entering the premises and whether additional preventive measures are needed.
