How does the trap make carbon dioxide?
Photo catalysis is a process that uses light-energy with titanium dioxide as a catalyst. Titanium dioxide does not degrade and remains effective throughout the life of the trap. The ultraviolet rays from the U/V lamps and titanium dioxide react to make carbon dioxide. Titanium dioxide, also known as titania, is naturally occurring and was approved as a food additive in 1968 by the USA. It is also used in making chocolates and is totally harmless to humans and animals. Will it harm humans or pets? It is completely safe for humans, animals and friendly to the environment.
