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.
