Description: Lentek 3/4 Acre Mosquito Trap (This is not the cheaper 1/2 acre model MK-02) Mosquitoes have been described as the most dangerous creatures on Earth. Aedes mosquitoes carry yellow fever and dengue fever. Culex mosquitoes carry several strains of encephalitis (including St. Louis Encephalitis, Eastern Equine Encephalitis and West Nile Virus), and Anopheles mosquitoes carry malaria. Male mosquitoes do not bite. The real risk is from female mosquitoes which bite when in search of a blood meal to provide protein for their eggs. Scientific research over the past 50 years has shown that female mosquitoes find their prey using a combination of sensory cues including body heat, light, colour, skin emanations, carbon dioxide and a number of other physical and environmental factors. Products such as candles, "bug zappers", citrosa plants, and herbal extracts provide no real benefit to the control of mosquitos. The Lentek Mosquito Trap is an effective alternative that is selective and environmentally friendly. The Lentek Mosquito Trap is effective against the West Nile Virus carrying mosquito. Here's how it works Warm blooded animals emit CO2 and moisture in their breath. The Lentek Mosquito Trap converts propane to CO2, through the use of a proprietary revolutionary ceramic catalyst, and creates moisture. The CO2 is released in a plume that forms a scent trail leading mosquitoes in the back to the trap. The body of the trap is heated to mimic the body heat of a living animal. Once near the trap, mosquitoes home in on the heat, attractant lights, and unique color combination. They mistake the trap for a warm blooded animal, where they will land and begin probing for a meal, only to be caught by the powerful suction fan of the trap. Many species of mosquitoes typically do not travel far from where the hatch during their short life cycle. Continuous use of the Lentek Mosquito Trap in one area can literally collapse the mosquito population on up to 3/4 acre of property, virtually eliminating biting mosquitoes in the area. Set up in minutes. 3-4 weeks of continuous operation on a single tank of propane.
