Congratulations on your Stinger
®
Mosquito Vacuum purchase. Designed by a team of engineers and
scientists, the Mosquito Vacuum combines the most effective mosquito attractants known today – carbon
dioxide (CO
2
), moisture, heat, contrasting color & shape and luring scents. The Mosquito Vacuum 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
4-6 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.
