Initial Set Up Instructions

Removing the Catch Bag

To remove the Catch Bag from the Trap, follow these steps:
Before removing the Catch Bag, disconnect the power to
your Mega-Catch™ Mosquito Trap so that the Fan is not
operational. Then crush the base of the Catch Bag in your
hand to kill any mosquitoes that do remain alive. Remove
Catch Bag by twisting Catch Bag holder anti-clockwise.
Dispose of Catch Bag contents well away from your dwelling
so as not to attract ants.
Mosquitoes collected in the Catch Bag will usually die very
quickly without access to moisture. In cooler climates they
may live for a longer period. In times of heavy infestations
of mosquitoes, it may be necessary
to empty the Catch Bag on a regular basis in order to
ensure optimum operation of the Trap.
Catch Bags should be hand washed in warm soapy water from time to time. Replacement Catch Bags
are a consumable item and are available from your Authorized Distributor.
