OWNER’S MANUAL:
This manual will provide you with directions for the safe and efficient operation of
your IT-8565. Please read the manual carefully and keep it in a safe place for
future reference. Failure to operate the IT-8565 in accordance with the instructions
in this manual may cause damage to the unit.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
TheIT-8565 does not involve fogging, pesticides, repellents, citronella, coils or
candles. These products do involve the use of dangerous chemicals known to be
harmful to both humans and the environment.
The UNITED IT-8565 Mosquito trap uses a combination of Octenol, special
spectrum UV light and heat that all are produced by humans or animals. This unit
uses the most environmental friendly methods in the market today and is safe for
you and the environment.
Female biting insects require blood to nourish their eggs. They get that blood from
you, your family, your pets and your friends. They track down hosts by sensing the
carbon dioxide, Octenol moisture and heat from breath, body odors and color
contrasts. The UNITED IT-8565 mosquito trap, creates a combination of those cues.
This tricks the insects into thinking the trap is a host. Once the pests are attracted to
the exterminator, they are sucked into an enclosure by a powerful vacuum fan. Once
trapped, they quickly dehydrate and die.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
While the IT-8565 will begin to catch immediately if there is any mosquito activity
in the vicinity, it may take 6 to 8 weeks of use to reduce local populations to the
point that breeding cycles are interrupted. You may choose to discontinue use of the
trap at this point but subsequent re-infestations will occur after rain.
UV BLACK LIGHT LAMP:
The UV Black Light Lamp is long wave and therefore safe. The output / intensity of
the lamp reduce with use. To maintain maximum attraction of flying insects replace
every 24 months.
MAINTENANCE:

OPERATION:
POSITIONING OF THE IT-8565 MOSQUITO TRAP
i. First determine the source of the mosquito nuisance: Mosquitoes breed in
wet areas such garden beds, ponds, tress / shrubs, wooded areas, streams,
and marshland
ii. Place the Trap between the mosquito sources and areas of human activity. As
far away from people and as close to the mosquito source as possible.
Attention: Do not place the trap close to people as it attracts, not repels
mosquitoes.
iii. Place the Trap in a location protected from rain and strong wind; if possible
upwind of the mosquitoes.
iv. Place the Trap in a predominantly shaded area. (It is very important to avoid
direct sunlight) hang it close to the ground, not higher than 40 – 60 cm. The
trap can be used indoors, but we then strongly recommend not using the
Attractant for indoors as it will attract mosquitoes from the outside.
MAINTENANCE:
WARNING:
Disconnect the power cord when handling the trap
Never submerge or expose the trap to water
Do not use if cords, transformers and electric connectors are damaged
Always position the trap away from wind, direct sunlight and rain
Keep fingers away from the fan
CLEAN CATCH CONTAINER:
Empty the catch container when needed or at least once a week. The container will
be found inside the trap.
i. Turn off the power
ii. Turn IT-8565 so underside is facing upwards
iii. Take hold of the catch container where it attaches to the Trap
iv. Turn the catch container counter clockwise to release
v. Empty the contents
vi. The mesh net must be clean to maintain properly airflow.
vii. Replace the catch container by turning clockwise
viii. Turn on the power
IF FAN BECOMES CLOGGED:
i. Turn off the power
ii. Remove catch container, see instruction above.
iii. Use a small brush and a small amount of soap water to clean the fan blades
iv. Replace catch tray, see instructions above
v. Turn on power
