I need a fly light for a room that is all-windows, so we have to put the unit on the floor.
While the Vector Plasma Fly light CAN be placed on the floor rather than hung, you likely will get less control over the population. The best placement for any fly light is mounted 3-6 feet high on a wall. Also, if you are placing this in a room that is all windows, this will greatly reduce the effectiveness of the light as fly lights should be placed in areas where there are no other competing light sources. You may want to look at doing higher levels of fly control on the exterior of your building to reduce the overall numbers around the structure that would be trying to get in. Using products like Maxforce Fly Spot bait out of reach of children on the sides of building/walls or on nearby dumpsters/trash recepticals can help drastically control a population. You can also use a general insecticide like Tastar on any surrounding door and window frames, as well as any foliage of bushes or leaf surface around the structure where flying insects, or pests in general, may congregate.
