Hi

I am an engineer working for a company that designs smoke alarms. We have a
problem with insect infestation in some markets such as Australia which leds
to circuit board damage through shorts etc. The enclosure has to have
openings to allow smoke and air to flow in to the unit, but insects get in
through these. Are our options limited to conformal coatings and insect
screens to cure the problem. Are there other options? Has anyone else
experience of similar problems.
Thank you for your help.

Best Regards
