Your Mega-Catch™ Mosquito Trap should be used in conjunction with other sensible control
measures designed to manage mosquito problems:
• Eliminate standing water in low spots, ditches, gutters and similar areas.
• Empty receptacles that collect water (e.g. bird baths and pot plant saucers).
• Reduce breeding sites by keeping grass mown.
• Mosquito netting/screens can be used to provide mosquito-free areas.
• Light coloured clothing is less attractive to some mosquito species and if tightly woven,
can give some protection against biting.
• DEET is considered the most effective mosquito repellent, but should not be used too
heavily.
