Nosquito® Mosquito Trap Review

Nosquito® Mosquito Vacuum
The Nosquito® Mosquito Vacuum was released to the market in 2007.
It is worth noting that the manufacturer, Kaz, Inc. is most well known for the “Stinger” range of bug zappers which are sometimes called mosquito traps but are a completely different design to any of the mosquito traps discussed in this website.
The Nosquito® Mosquito Vacuum must be operated continuously (24/7) and uses CO2, heat and moisture (generated by propane combustion), along with a “Nosquito® by Stinger 2-in-1 power bait” (a combination of Octenol and lactic acid) to attract mosquitoes. Once attracted to the trap, there is an internal fan which sucks the mosquitoes into a catch tray where they dehydrate and die. There is a digital display on the trap which indicates when to refill the propane and bait. Kaz, Inc. claim to have a “reliable, patented clog free design” in relation to the propane system.
What They Say:
Mosquito Vacuum
"Every year my family descends upon Lake Crescent in beautiful Oregon for our family reunion/4th of July celebration. This year was more of the same… camp fires, beer, wine, marshmallows, boating, fishing, etc… The main difference this year was the amazing amount of mosquitos, BIG aggressive mosquitoes! There were so many mosquitoes that it was simply unbearable....We tried everything to get some sanity."
"In a final attempt to get some relaxation we drove 1 1/2 hours into Bend, Oregon and stopped by Home Depot to buy a $300 dollar mosquito gadget (pictured above) with high hopes of being the campground heroes. We also bought and filled a propane tank, and an extension cord. We returned to the mosquito ridden campsite and quickly set the Stinger Mosquito Vacuum CT-100 unit up according to the directions. The unit was supposed to work for one full acre. This is where the massive disappointment begins. The unit caught 6 mosquitoes over 5 days! At a cost of $50 per mosquito this was a bad investment. I will write to Kaz (the manufacturer) and let you know what they say.
I am home now… scratching my wounds." Source.
" The Mosquito Vacuum appears to be a solid unit and it is at a price that I am willing to try it. I plugged it in last night and it has already been running for approx 28 hours. The good news is that it captured well over 30 mosquitos by 12pm this afternoon. The bad news is that I decided to move it to a different location and when I did the power cord got detached. With in seconds 30 mosquitos flew right out of the machine. I find this to be a fairly significant issue especially since the power tends to go off quite a bit during the summer months here in FL..... I am going to test this unit for a couple of more weeks behore making a final decision but right now I am very skeptical. I will continue to update the review as I learn more. I am relatively new to this type of device but there certainly seems to be a lot of room for improvement."
