Carefully read the directions for use before you begin
operating the Biogents Mosquitaire CO2
•
The Mosquitaire CO2 catches mosquitoes considerably
well; however, it does not offer full protection against
all blood sucking insects. In case of an epidemic that is
caused by mosquitoes, you should take further protec-
tive measures since using the trap alone does not offer
100% protection.
•
For the maintenance of the Mosquitaire CO2 trap and
the control of the mosquito catch rate, household
gloves should be worn and the catch bag should be
properly removed to avoid mosquitoes from escaping.
•
If the Mosquitaire trap is used outside, make sure the
transformer is completely isolated from rain and splash
water.
•
When using extension cords please keep the socket
outlet away from any moisture and avoid damage to
the cord.
•
The appliance is not to be used in or around locations
where flammable vapour or explosive dust is likely to
exist.
•
This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and know-
Congratulations on your purchase of the Biogents Mosquitaire CO2 You have chosen a state of the art mosquito trap. The
trapping technology of Biogents‘ systems won the 2007 Development Market Place under the World Bank and was acknow-
ledged as a Gold Standard in trapping tiger mosquitoes by Rutgers University in the USA in 2010.
APPROPRIATE USES AND REGULATIONS
The Biogents Mosquitaire CO2 trap is designed to capture mosquitoes outdoors. It needs to be protected from rain and
direct sun exposure and should be placed in an area where it will not be submerged in water. The trap and the transformer
need to be protected from intense heat (above 40°C) and extreme cold (below 5°C). The Mosquitaire should also not be used
in very dusty surroundings, as the dust may clog the nets and the gauze covering which obstructs the air currents.
The manufacturer is not held liable, in any case, if the product is improperly used or if any variations are made to the pro-
duct. Please pay close attention to all of the information that is contained in the instruction manual.
