Yes, the Flyweb Fly Light will work if they are placed in outlets that are near the floor. The flies are attracted to the UV lights. Generally, you will plug them directly into a standard outlet, ideally at counter height where the flies would enter the home. Each light will treat 600 sq. ft. or 20 lineal feet. It sounds like you may be dealing with cluster flies in addition to the lady bugs, both of which are overwintering pests which must be prevented in late Summer and Fall with residual insecticides on the structure where these pests enter. Please see our Overwintering Kit for more information and for products we recommend to use to combat these pests.
The Flyweb Fly Light is only labeled for indoor use, however if your outdoor kitchen is in a fully enclosed area, like a screened in patio with an awning, the Flyweb Fly Light could potentially be used there.
That is a question that we just do not have an answer to. You should contact your local cooperative extension office to seek advice on what plants would thrive in your region. In the meantime, if you are looking for a fly trap that we KNOW will work in your region, take a look at the FlyWeb Fly Light. All you have to do is plug it in, no planting required!
The Flyweb Fly Light is only for flying insects. We do offer Bedbug Kits for treating this insect. Please take a few moments to review our trreatment article on How to Get Rid of Bedbugs for a successful program.
Unfortunately, the Flyweb Fly Light only comes with an AC outlet. You certainly could use a product like the Catchmaster Glostick Flying Insect Trap (918) which is battery operated, and would catch moths as well. Please be advised that we are only able to ship within the U.S. at this time.
We suggest contacting the manufacturer directly with this question, as we have no information pertaining to this issue. You can contact Gardner at 800-558-8890.
