ABOUT MOSQUITOES
About 3,000 species of mosquitoes have been identified worldwide, with
approximately 170 species found in the United States. They live and breed near water
and thrive in areas with low lying foliage. They are most active in the early morning, at
dusk and in into the evening. Some mosquitoes are daytime feeders and are especially
active shady areas and on cloudy days. Geography and weather conditions affect
mosquito populations and activity. Only female mosquitoes bite. They hunt for blood
as protein to grow their eggs. They are lured to a blood meal by sensing body warmth,
CO2from breathing, bodily chemicals, movement and visual cues such as size, color
and contrast. A single female mosquito may lay thousands of eggs so attracting,
capturing and killing female mosquitoes with your Mosquito Vacuum can interrupt
breeding cycles and greatly reduce mosquito populations in your yard.

GETTING STARTED
The Mosquito Vacuum combines the most effective mosquito attractants known
today – carbon dioxide (CO2), moisture, heat, contrasting color & shape and luring
scents. It mimics human breathing by generating CO2from burning propane which
is commonly available for use with all outdoor barbecue grills. Female mosquitoes,
attracted to the CO2and other lures, mistake the machine for a meal and are sucked
into the Bug Basket by a powerful vacuum where they dehydrate and die. Within
3-4 weeks, the reproductive cycles of these biting pests may be interrupted
and mosquito populations could be reduced in your yard. This results in a more
pleasant outdoor environment for you and your family. This manual contains important
information about the safety, assembly, operation, use and maintenance of the
Mosquito Vacuum. Keep this manual for future reference and for educating any new
users. Safety precautions are essential when using, storing and servicing the Mosquito
Vacuum. This product is fueled by propane gas, which is invisible, odorless and highly
flammable. Always heed these precautions, as they are essential when using propane.
MOSQUITO VACUUM PLACEMENT IS CRITICAL TO SUCCESSFUL USE
The placement of the Mosquito Vacuum is critical to catching
mosquitoes.The largest amount of mosquitoes will be captured
by positioning the Mosquito Vacuum AWAY from the location
you want to protect.The Mosquito Vacuum should be placed
down-wind from where mosquitoes live and breed.
Breeding areas may include standing water, marshy wetlands,
bushes and shady wooded areas. Most mosquitoes will be
lured to the Mosquito Vacuum and be captured, before coming
into contact with you and your family.
1. Determine a suitable place with level ground, optimally 30-40 feet or the
furtherest point away from the area you want to protect out of bushes, tree or
marshy areas.
2. It is recommended the Mosquito Vacuum be placed in the shade, since mosquitoes
avoid sunlight.
3. Do not place the Mosquito Vacuum directly above a water source (sprinklers, hoses, etc.)
4. Make sure AC extension cord (if used) or low voltage extension cord (provided
with unit) are placed in such a manner that they are away from any human or
animal activity and cannot be run over with a lawn mower or other such outdoor
equipment.

OPERATIONAL INSTRUCTIONS
Once you start the Mosquito Vacuum, it will begin working immediately luring and
trapping mosquitoes but it is a season-long solution to your mosquito problem and only,
over time with continuous use, will you interrupt breeding cycles and reduce mosquito
populations.Allow 3-4 weeks to see reduced populations of mosquitoes in your yard.
1. Place Mosquito Vacuum in optimal location. See previous MOSQUITO VACUUM
PLACEMENT section.
2. Attach Unit to Power Supply. Plug the power supply into approved 120V GFCI
receptacle and position cord such that it will not interfere with outdoor activities.
If using an approved outdoor extension cord (not provided), plug the power supply
into approved outdoor extension cord, plug extension cord into approved 120V GFCI
receptacle and position extension cord such that it will not interfere with outdoor
activities.
3. Turn on Propane. Slowly turn propane tank on to the full open position (turn valve
counter-clockwise). Check for gas leaks by wiping non-ammonia soapy water on
the connector and looking for any signs of small bubbles forming.
4. Start Mosquito Vacuum. This unit has child secure controls. Press and hold
POWER ( ) for 3 seconds to start the unit. The fan will start and POWER
( ) indicator light will blink GREEN in warm-up mode until it reaches operating
temperature (approximately 5 minutes) (Figure 13). You may hear a popping/
ticking sound as the unit warms to temperature and tries to self ignite. When
POWER ( ) indicator light is steady
GREEN, the Mosquito Vacuum is ready
to lure and trap mosquitoes. If unit fails
to light, the unit will automatically cycle
through the start up routine two additional
times. If still unable to start, the CHECK
PROPANE icon and CHECK BUG BASKET
icon on the User Control Panel will blink
RED. See TROUBLESHOOTING in this manual or on the unit for help.
Figure 13

5. Set Lure Timer. Setting the REPLACE
LURE Timer will remind you to replace
the NOsquito by Stinger 2-in-1 Power
Bait every 30 days. The REPLACE LURE
indicator light will blink YELLOW when
you first start your trap. Simply press
the REPLACE LURE ( ) button and hold 3 seconds until YELLOW indicator light
blinks and goes out. (Figure 14). Always set the timer when you install a new lure.
6. Ensure Bug Basket is installed properly. See above INSTALL BUG BASKET and
confirm RED CHECK BUG BASKET ( ) indicator is off.
Standby Mode: The Mosquito Vacuum is designed to function only when mosquito
populations are present. Mosquitoes are present when temperatures are in the range
of 50-95°F. If the temperature, night or day, is out of this range, the Mosquito Vacuum
will automatically go into Standby. In Standby, the burner shuts down to conserve
gas and the fan continues to run to keep captured mosquitoes within the Bug Basket.
During this mode, the POWER ( ) light indicator blinks GREEN. The Mosquito
Vacuum will automatically turn itself back on when the temperature falls back in
the optimal mosquito range. You may hear a popping sound as the unit warms to
temperature and tries to self ignite.
Figure 14
REMOVE / CLEAN BUG BASKET
Figure 15
You will need to clean the Bug Basket periodically for optimum operation. Not only
will mosquitoes be vacuumed into the basket but often pollen, grass clippings and
other debris, so clean frequently as needed. NOTE: Mosquito populations in your yard
will vary throughout the season as different species emerge and breeding conditions
change. The catch in your Bug Basket will reflect high or low populations so be
aware that you may not see a basketful of mosquitoes everyday. The Mosquito
Vacuum is a powerful solution to continuously, attract and kill mosquitoes no matter
the population – the important thing is to continue to run it all season-long.
1. To Remove Bug Basket. Turn Bug Basket handle clockwise so the arrow
(s) on the Bug Basket aligns with the “Unlocked” symbol ( ) on the top of
the Vacuum Head (Figure 15). (The Bug Basket is
designed to twist close so that no live mosquitoes can
escape when the Bug Basket is removed). Pull straight
up. CHECK BUG BASKET ( ) indicator will light RED
while Bug Basket is removed.
2. To Empty/Clean Bug Basket. Unhook the small latch
on the bottom mesh door and empty mosquitoes
(Figures 16 & 17). Gently tap Bug Basket on the
ground to completely empty. If mosquitoes are still Figure 16

11
Figure 17
Figure 18
alive, leave Bug Basket in the sun for a few hours so the
insects dehydrate. Empty as described above. If necessary, use
small brush to remove any debris. Please note: the Mosquito
Vacuum is designed with a powerful air flow. Once mosquitoes
are trapped in the Bug Basket they will dehydrate and die.
Over time in this strong current of air, some dehydrated insects
may disintegrate and resemble dirt or dust. Frequent cleaning
is important to ensure optimum performance.
3. To Replace Bug Basket. Ensure bottom mesh door of Bug
Basket is snapped securely in place, and the Basket is in the
closed position. Line up the arrow (s) on the Bug Basket with
the “Unlocked” symbol ( ) on the top of the Vacuum Head and
drop the Bug Basket in the intake area. Turn the Bug Basket
handle counter-clockwise until the arrow (s) on the Bug
Basket aligns with the “Locked” symbol ( ) on the Vacuum
Head (Figure 18). The Bug Basket will twist open (which you
cannot see) and be ready to capture mosquitoes as you lock it in place.
SHUT DOWN INSTRUCTIONS
1. Close the gas valve on the propane tank by
turning it clock-wise.
2. Press POWER ( ), hold 3 seconds until
GREEN indicator light blinks (Figure 19).
This puts the unit in a cool-down routine
which lasts approximately 2 minutes. When
the POWER light goes out and the fan shuts
down the Mosquito Vacuum is OFF.
3. Disconnect low voltage extension cord from power supply while unit is not in use.
Figure 19
MAINTENANCE
1. Check and clean the Bug Basket on a regular
basis especially during high mosquito popula-
tions, during pollen season and after mowing.
2. Refill propane tank every 21 days or
as needed. The CHECK PROPANE ( )
indicator light will light RED when propane
needs to be refilled (Figure 20). Be sure POWER ( ) is off and unit is unplugged
before changing propane tanks.
3. Replace the NOsquito™by Stinger®2-in-1 Power Bait lure every 30 days.The REPLACE
LURE ( ) indicator light will light YELLOW when the lure needs to be refilled.

ACERCA DE LOS MOSQUITOS
Cerca de 3,000 especies de mosquitos han sido identificadas por todo el mundo, con
aproximadamente 170 especies encontradas en los Estados Unidos. Viven y se crían
cerca del agua y prosperan en áreas con follaje bajo. Son más activos en la mañana
temprano, al atardecer y empezando la noche. Algunos mosquitos se alimentan de día y
son especialmente activos en áreas con sombra y en días nublados. La geografía y las
condiciones atmosféricas afectan las poblaciones y actividad del mosquito. Solamente el
mosquito hembra pica. Buscan la sangre como proteína para producir sus huevos. Son
atraídos a alimentarse de sangre mediante la percepción del calor corporal, el CO2 de la
respiración, de los productos químicos corporales, del movimiento y de señales visuales
tales como tamaño, color y contraste. Un solo mosquito hembra puede poner millares de
huevos así que el atraer, capturar y matar a los mosquitos hembra con su Aspiradora de
Mosquitos pueden interrumpir los ciclos de crianza y reducir grandemente las poblaciones
del mosquito en su jardín.

PRIMEROS PASOS
La Aspiradora de Mosquitos combina los señuelos de mosquitos más eficaces conocidos actualmente
– monóxido de carbono (CO2), humedad, calor, forma y color contrastante y aromas atrayentes. Imita la
respiración humana generando CO2 por la quema del propano el cual es comúnmente usado en todo
tipo de parrillas para asar en exteriores. Los mosquitos hembra, atraídos por el CO2 y a otros señuelos,
confunden la máquina por alimento y son succionados por una poderosa aspiradora a la Canasta para
Insectos donde son deshidratados y mueren. Dentro de 3-4 semanas, los ciclos reproductivos de estas
pestes pueden ser interrumpidos y la población de mosquitos se podría reducir en su jardín. Esto da
como resultado un ambiente al aire libre más agradable para usted y su familia. Este manual contiene
información importante acerca de la seguridad, armado, funcionamiento, uso y mantenimiento de la
Aspiradora para Mosquitos. Mantenga este manual para futuras referencias y para educar a nuevos
usuarios. Medidas de seguridad son esenciales cuando se use, almacene y de mantenimiento a su
Aspiradora de Mosquitos. Este producto opera con gas propano, el cual es incoloro, inodoro y altamente
inflamable. Siempre considere estas precauciones, ya que son esenciales en el uso del propano.
LA COLOCACIÓN DE LA ASPIRADORA DE MOSQUITOS ES CRÍTICA
PARA UN USO ÓPTIMO
La colocación de la Aspiradora de Mosquitos es clave para
atrapar a los mosquitos. La mayor cantidad de mosquitos
serán capturados mediante la colocación de la Aspiradora
de Mosquitos LEJOS del área que usted desea proteger. La
Aspiradora de Mosquitos debe ser colocada a favor del viento
donde los mosquitos viven y se reproducen.
Las áreas de reproducción pueden incluir agua estancada,
pantanos fangosos, arbustos y áreas boscosas con sombra. La
mayoría de los mosquitos serán atraídos a la Aspiradora de Mosquitos y serán capturados,
antes de que entren en contacto con usted y su familia.
1. Determine un lugar adecuando con suelo nivelado, de preferencia a 9 – 12 metros
o en el punto más alejado del área que usted desea proteger fuera de arbustos,
árboles o áreas pantanosas.
2. Es recomendable que la Aspiradora de Mosquitos sea colocada a la sombra, ya que
los mosquitos evitan la luz solar.
3. No coloque la Aspiradora de Mosquitos directamente sobre una fuente de agua
(aspersores, mangueras, etc.)
4. Asegúrese que el cable de extensión CA (si es usado) o el cable de extensión de
bajo voltaje (proporcionado con la unidad) estén colocados de una manera que
estén alejados de cualquier actividad humana o animal y no pueda ser pasado por
debajo de una podadora u otro equipo de uso al aire libre.
