Recommended types of gas cylinders and sources:
In order to supply the trap with the carbon dioxide (CO
2
) at -
tractant, a commercially available CO
2
gas cylinder with six or
more kilograms is required. These can be acquired or rented
at drink retailers or bottle depots for a deposit. A door-to-
door delivery service may also be possible. We recommend a
10 kg gas cylinder, which is also used in restaurants for draft
beer and soda.
Attaching the pressure reducing regulator onto the CO
2
gas
cylinder:
The BG-Mosquitaire CO
2
trap includes a specialized pressure
reducing regulator for an optimal adaption of the CO
2
emis-
sion to the local and seasonal conditions. Screw the pressure
reducing regulator onto the CO
2
gas cylinder by rotating the
screw on the end of the regulator onto the opening on the
CO
2
cylinder, and make sure it is tight by using a wrench or
pliers [F7].
Attaching the CO
2
tube:
The BG-Mosquitaire CO
2
set includes a CO
2
tube. One end is
attached to the CO
2
emitter nozzle, and the other end is to
be attached to the pressure reducing regulator. Unscrew the
nut on the outlet of the pressure reducing regulator [F8, (1)].
Thread the end of the CO
2
tube through the nut [F9]. Then fix
the end of the CO
2
tube onto the outlet [F10] and re-screw
the nut back onto the outlet with an adjustable or 12 mm
wrench.
