Don't spend another summer covered in bug spray or trapped indoors. Enjoy your backyard protected by the Mosquito Magnet. Sprays, candles and lotions offer only temporary relief from mosquitoes and biting insects. The Mosquito Magnet biting insect trap is a long-term solution that is scientifically proven to virtually eliminate mosquitoes from your yard. It mimics a human by emitting a plume of carbon dioxide (CO2), heat and moisture, and a short-range attractant, octenol. This precise combination is irresistible to female mosquitoes (the ones that bite), no-see-ums, biting midges, black flies, and sandflies. As the mosquito approaches the trap hoping for a human, it is quietly vacuumed into a net where it dehydrates and dies. Silent, odorless, no mess. By using the Mosquito Magnet continuously throughout the mosquito season, you will be able to capture both day- and night-biting mosquitoes, thereby drastically reducing the mosquito population in your yard. 50-Foot low voltage cord included (burying clips included) Sled base Uses Octanol attractant One-year warranty Refill propane tank and replace attractant every 21 days. Empty net as needed.

Customer Reviews
Works real good when it works
In the 1st year they replaced my unit after 6 months, that unit worked 2 years with no problems. I get into my 2nd tank of gas this year and the unit craps out. I did all the tricks with no results, this ones a goner.
A device that costs this much should last at least 5 years.
Forget the class action, the lawyers get a big payday and we get a coupon for a free box of Octenol, yea right.
I realize that this is not a repair thread but I feel the need to pass this on:
I had a code on my unit that said the unit was not getting enough gas (slow blinking red). I read on another site where one guy attached a shop vac to the horn and got his unit to work. I did the same with my sears shop vac, pushed it into the horn area (without the bait in and where the octenol is) and turned the shop vac on for a few minutes. My machine now works. I would recommend doing this with a large vac due the large vacuum you get. Better than spending $200 for a repair person.
Attracted Mosquitoes, but didn't catch them
I used the product for two months. I caught 4 mosquitoes during the eight weeks and am convinced they had a suicide pact. Every time I would check the trap I would be swarmed by the pests, but the magnet did not trap them. I even purchased the additional lure, with no positive results. Returned the item for a full refund. I bought it from Home Depot.
Only lasts one season
I bought one and it lasted one season. I bought a new one and it lasted one season. No service centers in my area. Great when they work but that isn't long...
