General Safety Information
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration,
service or maintenance can cause injury or prop
-
erty damage. Read the instructions thoroughly
before installing or servicing this equipment.
WARNING
WARNING: For Outdoor Use Only
• This product is fueled by propane gas. Propane gas is invisible,
odorless, and flammable. An odorant is normally added to help
detect leaks and can be described as a “rotten egg” smell. The
odorant can fade over time so leaking gas is not always detectable
by smell alone.
• Propane gas is heavier than air and leaking propane will sink to
the lowest level possible. It can be ignited by ignition sources
including matches, lighters, sparks or open flames of any kind
many feet away from the original leak. Use only propane gas set
up for vapor withdrawal.
• Propane gas should be stored or used in compliance with local
ordinances and codes or with ANSI/NFPA 58. Turn off propane
when not in use.
WARNING
Combustion by-products produced when using this product contain
chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects,
or other reproductive harm.
• Mosquito DeletoTM System
•No zapping
•No lotions
•No sprays
•No electrical cords
•Mosquitoes have highly developed senses for detecting humans
and animals.
Mosquitoes are attracted to three things:
• carbon dioxide from breath
• body heat
• faint odors emitted by animals and humans.
•The Mosquito DeletoTM Trap lures mosquitoes to it by emitting
heat, carbon dioxide and a special mosquito attractant called
Octenol. The Mosquito DeletoTM Inhibitor emits and circulates a
patented scent that inhibits mosquitoes’ ability to detect humans.
•The irresistible combination attracts mosquitoes to the trap where
they are captured. . .never to bother you again!
•This instruction manual will assist you in setting up your new
Mosquito DeletoTM System. Please refer to the instructions
included with the Inhibitor for details on use, storage, specifications.

Maintenance
To enjoy years of outstanding performance from your mosquito trap
perform the following maintenance activities on a regular basis:
•Keep exterior surfaces clean.
•Use warm soapy water for cleaning. Never use flammable or corrosive
cleaning agents.
•While cleaning your unit, be sure to keep the area around the burner dry
at all times.
•Air flow must be unobstructed. Keep controls, burner, and circulating air
passages clean. Signs of possible blockage include:
- Gas odor.
- Mosquito trap makes popping noises.
- Smoky exhaust.
• It is a good practice to remove leaves or trash that may collect in or near
the cage.
•Spiders and insects can nest in unit. This condition can cause malfunc-
tions. When trap is not in use, store in plastic bag or sealed box.
(See Storage Instructions.) Compressed air may help clear away small
particles.
•If unit has been left uncovered and is wet from rain, yard sprinklers, etc.,
allow to dry (at least 30 minutes prior to use).
•In a salt-air environment (such as near an ocean), corrosion
occurs more quickly than normal. Frequently check for corroded areas
and clean or repair them promptly.
Storage
Disconnect mosquito trap from propane fuel
before storage of either the cylinder or the
mosquito trap.
1. Turn cylinder valve off.
2. Remove cylinder and store.
3. Store propane cylinder in safe manner. Refer to Chapter 5 of
Standard for Storage and Handling of Liquefied Gases, ANSI/NFPA
58. Follow all local codes.
• BURN HAZARD
• Do not touch or attempt any maintenance on unit for at least one
hour after use.
• Make sure all controls are off and propane tank has been
removed before doing maintenance.
WARNING
1. Use the Mosquito DeletoTMInhibitor to push mosquitoes
away from you. . .use the Mosquito DeletoTM Trap to
attract and kill mosquitoes!
2. The Mosquito DeletoTM Inhibitor is designed for occasional
use. Turn it on when going outdoors to gently disperse the
scent that blocks the mosquitoes’ sensors. Turning the
unit off will close the vents and preserve the unit for future
How To Use Mosquito DeletoTM Products:
use.
3. The Mosquito DeletoTM
Inhibitor unit should be placed near
where people gather. If there is a gentle breeze, be sure to
place the inhibitor upwind from where people gather to be
sure the scent covers the area desired.
4. During days of gusty winds (over 20 miles an hour), you
should recheck the Mosquito DeletoTM
Trap to be sure that
the trap is operating properly.
Helpful Hints
1. Did you know that only female mosquitoes bite? Female
mosquitoes need protein to breed and lay eggs.
2. Mosquito eggs need water to hatch. Stopping adult female
mosquitoes from breeding will help to reduce your
problem with mosquitoes.
3. Mosquitoes can also be good fliers. While most mosqui-
toes do not migrate far from where they breed, some
mosquitoes can fly up to 75 miles.
4. Mosquitoes also bite primarily in the evening and morning
hours, when it is cooler. Some types of mosquitoes bite
during the day. All mosquitoes like the temperature to be
warm and generally humid, but not hot. During very hot
days, mosquitoes will hide in the brush to stay cool.
5. Mosquitoes will also take cover from winds greater than
10 miles an hour.
6. Clearing your yard of standing water will help to reduce
the number of mosquitoes breeding in your area. Remove
all standing water in buckets, tires, and plant trays. Make
sure that areas in your yard do not become flooded with
standing water. All ponds and bird baths should have
water cleaned frequently or water should be circulated to
prevent mosquitoes from breeding.
Proper Inhibitor and Trap Placement cont.
Always store propane
cylinders outdoors.
4. Remove AAA battery
from Ignitor.
5. Place mosquito trap in
plastic bag or sealed box.
6. Store mosquito trap and
base in a dry, clean, and
safe place.
7. Legs can be positioned
as shown for storage.

holes facing center of trap.
Leak Check
WARNING
•Perform leak test outdoors.
•Extinguish all open flames.
•NEVER leak test when smoking.
•Do not use the mosquito trap until connection has been leak tested
and does not leak.
•
Make 2-3 oz. of leak check solution (one part liquid dishwashing deter-
gent and three parts water).
•
Apply several drops of solution at Cylinder Connection and Collar
Connection
If bubbles appear at connection, there is a leak.
•
Disconnect, reconnect, and perform another leak check. If you continue
to see bubbles after several attempts, cylinder or Regulator may be
defective and should be replaced.
If NO bubbles appear at connections, the connections are secure.
•
DO NOT TAMPER WITH THE REGULATOR.

DANGER
• EXPLOSION - FIRE HAZARD
• Never store propane near high heat, open flames, pilot lights,
direct sunlight, other ignition sources or where temperatures
exceed 120 degrees F (49°C).
• Propane is heavier than air and can accumulate in low places. If
you smell gas, leave the area immediately.
• Never install or remove propane tank while unit is operating, near
flame, pilot lights, other ignition sources or while unit is hot to
touch.
• This unit is hot during use and can ignite flammables. Keep gaso-
line and other flammable liquids and vapors well away from unit.
• The propane tank must always be stored outdoors in a well ventilat-
ed space. Never store propane tank in an enclosed area (house,
garage, etc.). If unit is to be stored indoors, disconnect the propane
tank for out door storage.
Operation
n Install one adhesive trap into back of unit and one adhesive trap into front
of unit.
Helpful Tip:
On hot days, the waxed paper will remove easily if the adhesive trays are
cool. Store traps indoors.
•Do not attempt to operate until you have read & understand all
General Safety Information in this manual and all assembly is
complete.
•
After lighting the unit for the first time it is normal to see some smoke
coming from the burner area. This smoke is the result of the burning
of residual oils from the manufacturing process. The smoke will disap-
pear within 10-15 minutes.

4. Repeat this process for every restart of the unit.
Proper Inhibitor and Trap Placement
1. Placement of the trap – find an area of your yard or camp-
site that is shaded, cool, or well protected by brush. Refer
to the Quick Tips Sheet.
2. Mosquitoes breed in standing water or areas that become
flooded with water during rain storms. Mosquitoes will also
take cover under low lying brush to stay cool on warm days.
3. The trap should be placed in an area away from where
people gather. We recommend a distance of at least 50
feet away from people.
4. Positioning of the device is very important. If you are not
catching mosquitoes, move the unit to another area of the
yard or campsite that is protected from wind and direct sun
and is near water. Try each location for a minimum of days.
5. The Trap is designed to operate around the clock in your
yard or campsite. The Trap continuously attracts, traps,
and kills mosquitoes all day and all night.
6. Together, the Mosquito DeletoTM Inhibitor and Trap are a
strong defense against mosquitoes!
7. Place the inhibitor unit per instructions in the inhibitor
package.
