How
the SkeeterVac works:
Female biting insects require blood to nourish their eggs.
They get that blood from you, your family, your pets and
your friends. They track down hosts by sensing the carbon
dioxide (the primary cue), moisture and heat from breath,
body odors and color contrasts. SkeeterVac® mosquito
exterminators create a combination of those cues. This
tricks the insects into thinking the trap is a host. Once
the pests are attracted to the exterminator, they are
captured on the sticky trap or sucked into an enclosure
by a powerful vacuum fan. Once trapped, they quickly dehydrate
and die. Creating Attractants:
Propane gas from a standard grill cylinder is burned
in a sealed combustion chamber where it is catalyzed
into warm carbon dioxide and water. This precision mixture
is exhausted out into the air stream. A unique time-release
FineTune® lure at the top of the unit emits a scent
that when combined with CO2 increases the attraction
power for many species. Different species like different
levels of the scent. Only SkeeterVac® mosquito exterminators
allow you to vary the amount of attractant to match
the species in your backyard. Adjustment is made by
simply turning a dial.
