GETTING STARTED
The Mosquito Vacuum combines the most effective mosquito attractants known
today – carbon dioxide (CO
2
), moisture, heat, contrasting color & shape and luring
scents. It mimics human breathing by generating CO
2
from burning propane which
is commonly available for use with all outdoor barbecue grills. Female mosquitoes,
attracted to the CO
2
and other lures, mistake the machine for a meal and are sucked
into the Bug Basket by a powerful vacuum where they dehydrate and die.
Within
3-4 weeks, the reproductive cycles of these biting pests may be interrupted
and mosquito populations could be reduced in your yard.
This results in a more
pleasant outdoor environment for you and your family. This manual contains important
information about the safety, assembly, operation, use and maintenance of the
Mosquito Vacuum. Keep this manual for future reference and for educating any new
users. Safety precautions are essential when using, storing and servicing the Mosquito
Vacuum. This product is fueled by propane gas, which is invisible, odorless and highly
flammable. Always heed these precautions, as they are essential when using propane.
MOSQUITO VACUUM PLACEMENT IS CRITICAL TO SUCCESSFUL USE
The placement of the Mosquito Vacuum is critical to catching
mosquitoes. The largest amount of mosquitoes will be captured
by positioning the Mosquito Vacuum
AWAY
from the location
you want to protect. The Mosquito Vacuum should be placed
down-wind from where mosquitoes live and breed.
Breeding areas may include standing water, marshy wetlands,
bushes and shady wooded areas. Most mosquitoes will be
lured to the Mosquito Vacuum and be captured, before coming
into contact with you and your family.
1.
Determine a suitable place with level ground, optimally 30-40 feet or the
furtherest point away from the area you want to protect out of bushes, tree or
marshy areas.
2.
It is recommended the Mosquito Vacuum be placed in the shade, since mosquitoes
avoid sunlight.
3.
Do not place the Mosquito Vacuum directly above a water source (sprinklers, hoses, etc.)
4.
Make sure AC extension cord (if used) or low voltage extension cord (provided
with unit) are placed in such a manner that they are away from any human or
animal activity and cannot be run over with a lawn mower or other such outdoor
equipment.
