Backed by nearly two decades of scientific research and testing, Mosquito Magnet® traps are scientifically proven as a long-term solution to reduce mosquito populations. The nuisance and discomfort of mosquitoes and biting insects is a thing of the past for homeowners who use a Mosquito Magnet in their yard.Mosquito Magnet traps with their revolutionary technology & patented design kill thousands of mosquitoes allowing you to enjoy the outdoors again. This patented design uses a catalytic converter to process ordinary propane into carbon dioxide – the most effective, known mosquito attractant. The carbon dioxide mixed with the proper amount of heat and moisture along with a secondary attractant mimics a human’s breath. As the mosquitoes are drawn to the trap by the attractant, the patented Counterflow™ technology vacuums them into the bug bag where they dehydrate and die within 24 hours.For optimal performance, Mosquito Magnet traps should be run 24 hours a day, 7 days a week in order to break the breeding cycle of mosquitoes. You will see noticeable results within 7-10 days with the mosquito population being reduced significantly within 4 weeks. One fact that is not widely known to consumers is that Woodstream Corporation acquired certain assets of the Mosquito Magnet product line from American Biophysics Corp. over two years ago. Since then, Woodstream has developed a 360° Customer Support Program that incorporates – an easy to use, informative web-site, dedicated phone line for questions and an extensive network of National and local Certified Service Centers.Specialties: pest control, green pest control, design, engineering
