Clean A Mosquito Magnet

Mosquitoes can make it impossible to enjoy your yard.


The Mosquito Magnet trap helps remove biting insects from your yard. The Mosquito Magnet produces a warm carbon dioxide plume from propane gas, combined with octenol, which attracts the mosquitoes to the device. The Mosquito Magnet then vacuums the bugs into a net where they die from dehydration. Periodic cleaning of the Mosquito Magnet is necessary to make sure the vacuum's air flow is unrestricted, the net isn't full and the propane tank entrance doesn't become clogged. Does this Spark an idea?


Instructions


1. Use a Quick-Clear cartridge with the Quick-Clear valve to prevent clogging from the build up of propane contaminants. Quick-Clear cartridges can be purchased at retail stores that sell the Mosquito Magnet. Use the Quick-Clear valve after the first propane change and after each tank change. You will experience trap failure from clogging if contaminants are allowed to build up.


2. Empty and clean the mosquito net when it is half full. Replace the mosquito net if it becomes ripped or damaged. It can also become excessively dirty from dust and pollen after months of use. Replacement nets can be purchased from the company's website at Mosquitomagnet.com.


3. Wipe the outside of the trap with a damp towel to keep it clean.


4. Remove any dead bugs that are stuck to the inside of the vent. Too many bugs can reduce air flow, making the vacuum less effective.
