Modern and new technology is always introduced to help farmers solve their day-to-day problems. One of these technologies is renewable energy like solar panel traps for insects.
This gadget uses solar to charge and produces ultraviolet light to attract insects. The ultraviolet light is covered by an electromagnetic mesh which electrocutes the insects when they pass through. The trap was designed to work at night since it’s when most insects are active. One gadget can last up to 5 years and can protect a land size of 5 acres. If there is no solar energy the gadget can be charged by electricity. One gadget can last up to 5 years and can protect a land size of 5 acres. It should be placed 6 feet above the ground or above the height of your crops. Avoid touching the mesh cover when the gadget is on. It helps mostly reduce the amount of chemicals used in the control of pests hence reducing the production cost.
