SkeeterVac Insect Traps
It's your backyard. And it's your right to enjoy it. SkeeterVac® mosquito exterminators can quietly and safely reduce the nuisance of a number of biting insects.
How SkeeterVac Traps Exterminate
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 (the primary cue), moisture and heat from breath, body odors and color contrasts. SkeeterVac® mosquito exterminators create 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 captured on the sticky trap or sucked into an enclosure by a powerful vacuum fan. Once trapped, they quickly dehydrate and die.
Creating Attractants
Propane gas from a standard grill cylinder is burned in a sealed combustion chamber where it is catalyzed into warm carbon dioxide and water. This precision mixture is exhausted out into the air stream.
A unique time-release FineTune® lure at the top of the unit emits a scent that when combined with CO2 increases the attraction power for many species. Different species like different levels of the scent. Only SkeeterVac® mosquito exterminators allow you to vary the amount of attractant to match the species in your backyard. Adjustment is made by simply turning a dial.
Fire and Forget
Our summer service program keeps your SkeeterVac baited and fueled all summer long. We'll change and reload the lure, gas and trap per the maker's guidelines for you – so you can forget it. And the bugs.
