Proper Dispenser Placement
The SKEETER DEFEATER
®
Dispenser works very well
in the listed outdoor settings. Hang the Dispenser six
feet above the ground, out of reach of children and
pets, or place on a sturdy fl at surface fi ve to six feet
above the ground. The SKEETER DEFEATER
Dispenser hangs easily from shepherd’s hooks, fence
posts, awnings, and other similar hardware. And
because it has a fl at base, you can also set the
SKEETER DEFEATER Dispenser on high ledges,
columns, and other high surfaces.
Important: when the Dispenser is set to the DUSK/DAWN + Remote
power setting, the Dispenser must be placed in direct sunlight to
perform at an optimal level.
The DUSK/DAWN
®
Sensor is a device that measures even the smallest
changes in light. By placing the unit in direct sunlight, you allow for the
SKEETER DEFEATER Dispenser to receive the information for determining
dusk and dawn each day. With this in mind, it is best to not place the Dispenser
in heavily shaded areas.
Direct the Nozzle to spray toward the target area, and away from
swimming pools, water bodies, and/or eating and cooking areas. One
SKEETER DEFEATER Dispenser effectively treats up to 300 sq ft. Even though
the Dispenser sprays in one direction, the insecticide will disperse and actually
cover 360 degrees around the Dispenser. The diagram on page 7 shows a
typical yard and the possible coverage areas for one SKEETER DEFEATER
Dispenser. Multiple Dispensers may be used to treat an entire outdoor area
(and can be controlled by a single Remote Control), but do not use more than
one Dispenser for every 300 square feet of space.

Understanding the
Cylinder Refi ll Unit (CRU)
The Cylinder Refi ll Unit (CRU) provides the insecticide for
your SKEETER DEFEATER
®
Dispenser. The insecticide
contains pyrethrin, a botanical insecticide that kills
mosquitoes on contact.
The CRU is designed to
work exclusively with the SKEETER DEFEATER
Dispenser; no other insecticide aerosol containers
will fi t into the Spray Head of the Dispenser and
work properly.
The CRU may come with a spray button.
It is necessary to remove this spray button before
inserting the CRU into the Dispenser.
Replacing the CRU
The CRU will last for about 66 sprays when used with the
Dispenser. If you spray the Dispenser twice a day (dusk
and dawn), the CRU will last about 30 days. The Indicator Light will blink once
every four seconds once the unit has been sprayed 54 times in a single power
setting to notify you of the upcoming need for a replacement CRU. You can
purchase additional CRUs where you purchased your Dispenser, at various
retail outlets, and online at SkeeterDefeater.com.
Note
The internal counter found in the Dispenser counts sprays since last
powering on the unit. Therefore, if you turn off the power of the Dispenser
and then turn it back on, the counter will be set to zero. In this instance, the
Indicator Light would not blink at the right time to let you know your CRU is
almost empty.
