What I meant, though, was an ordinary light trap (for flying insects). Like those with electrical grilles and a drawer to collect the insects or with sticky changeable glue sheets in the back. But with batteries instead of a cord. Battery-powered would be preferred, to avoid too many electrical installations in the storage rooms. It is possible to find battery-powered insect traps for field work, but I'm not convinced that these will be sufficient and powerful enough for monitoring storage rooms over time (together with inspections and glue traps with and without pheromone). Any experience?

These, in my opinion, are a waste of money. Better to use standard sticky traps, routine inspections and targeted pheromone trap placements to monitor for infestations. The glow-stick light traps might be minimally effective in picking up adult carpet beetle activity, but would be ineffective for monitoring clothes moths.

Thank you.
