Scientific research has shown that mosquitoes find their prey using a combination of sensory signals including light, shape, color, heat, vibration, sweat and other by-products of human activity. Mega Catch has exploited these sensory signal by using sophisticated electronic components and advanced design features to produce one of the world's most advanced mosquito traps.
The Mega Catch Premier Mosquito Trap has been designed for indoor or outdoor use. When operating the Premier trap indoors, remove the Mega Catch Octenol Lure. The trap can be programmed to start and stop according to peak mosquito activity in your area. Featuring an electronically controlled diode lighting system, the trap produces intermittent light at oscillating frequencies selected to coincide with spectral sensitivity peaks for many mosquito species and also features a low-intensity U.V. bulb to aid in visual attraction.
Mosquitoes attracted to the Premier by visual and other cues seek to land on and probe specially designed surfaces the trap where they are collected in the Catch Bag or Liquid Catch Container. When the trap is operated using the Liquid Catch Container, the air plume emanating from the bottom of the trap is humidity enriched. Smaller insects (eg: no-see-ums) are best caught using the Liquid Catch Container because the mesh size on the standard Catch Bag may be too large to capture them. The Catch Bag system requires less frequent attention and therefore may be your preferred mosquito catching system.

It's catching bugs like crazy...does everything it says it would.
We have tried several different locations and several different potions and have not been able to see any difference in the mosquito population.
It only seems to catch moths. My neighbors have the mosquito magnet & are killing tons of black flies & mosquitoes. The Mega Catch premier is next to useless.
I have tried it with & without scent & I use the wet catch with soap & sweet cola. Still nothing!!
