Black Friday Deals on Mega-Catch™ Mosquito Trap Accessories

Black Friday

Black Friday has changed drastically since it started in the 60s. Originally, the term “Black Friday” was used by Philadelphia police officers to describe the chaotic shopping day after Thanksgiving, when the streets were clogged with pedestrians and vehicles. However, later on it was also called Black Friday to mark the beginning of the Christmas shopping season, when stores moved from loss to profit – or from “red” to “black”.

Cyber Monday

For those who prefer to do their shopping in front of the computer, on-line shopping is a sure way to avoid store crowds.

Mosquito Trap Storage Tips

Getting ready to store your Mega-Catch™ mosquito trap for the cold winter months ahead?  Remember a little bit of maintenance now will ensure a longer life for your trap as well as ensuring it is in peak condition and ready for the next mosquito massacre come spring (or when temperatures average 50°F).

Tips for Maintaining and Storing Your Trap over Winter
Instructions:

  1. Turn off your Mega-Catch™ Trap and disconnect the power cable.
  2. Turn off and disconnect the regulator from the C02 cylinder (Ultra).  To ensure that insects don’t nest in your C02 system during the off-season place the regulator in a sealed bag, and place some electrical tape or similar over the end of the gas line (attached to the rear of the trap).
  3. Remove the skirt (Ultra & Premier) and wipe down the outside of the trap with clean soapy water and a damp cloth. 
  4. Open your trap using a phillips screwdriver (Ultra & Premier)    and again, using warm soapy water, clean the internal plates, heated reflective surface and fan, then allow to dry thoroughly.  (Step by step guide in the Operation manual or download from http://www.megacatch.com/manuals.html).
  5. Using a small sponge or toothbrush and warm soapy water, reach into the trap (Alpha) and carefully clean the inside casing of the fan and fan blades.
  6. Remove and discard any opened attractant lures – they’re only effective for 30 days.
  7. Remove and clean the mesh catch bag – pollen, dust and dirt can prohibit airflow and prevent your trap from working efficiently.  If the catch bag is torn or damaged in any way, remove and discard. Start next season with a fresh mesh bag.
  8. To extend the life of your trap, store it in a garage or shed, protected from the elements and extreme cold.
  9. Mid-way through winter, turn on your trap and let it run for a day.  This will keep the timer battery charged (Ultra & Premier) and the fan moving (Alpha, Ultra & Premier).

Mega-Catch™ Mosquito Traps Provide Relief for Canadians feeling the bite

Mosquitoes, not royals making headlines in Canada: “Skeeters put bite on Esks practice”.  As football players were reported to be feeling the bite, Edmonton scored the dubious honor of being named the mosquito capital of Canada (a title formerly held by Winnipeg).  In fact Kavis Reed may have become the first coach in football history to pull his team, the Edmonton Eskimos, off the field and go indoors to practice because of mosquitoes. “They were a distraction,” he said. “They were flying into players eyes.”

Unfortunately mosquitoes are not just a distraction.  According to Canada’s public health agency (PHAC) there are 74 known species of mosquitoes in Canada and while not all mosquitoes are disease carriers, the debilitating and potentially fatal West Nile virus infection has been found in 10 of these.

Fortunately for Canadians, stocks of Mega-Catch’s™ next generation Pro 900 Series mosquito traps, along with the mosquitoes, have arrived at the company’s new Toronto facility.  It was the emergence of West Nile Virus in Canada in 2002 that initially triggered the public’s interest in finding ways of controlling mosquitoes around their homes and contributed to the success of Mega-Catch’s™ earlier 600/800 Series mosquito traps. 

Evolving Technology
EnviroSafe Technologies, developer and manufacturer of Mega-Catch™ Pro 900 Series Mosquito Traps, believe the next generation represents a dramatic increase in trap capabilities.  Using no pesticides or propane, these state of the art, smart traps, successfully mimic sensory signals which attract not only mosquitoes, but other common biting insects including black flies, sand flies and biting midges.  Because each mosquito species is unique, with different characteristics and feeding habits Mega-Catch’s™ multi-attractant traps have been specifically designed to appeal to a wider range of mosquito species.   And when used as part of an integrated approach to DIY mosquito control, may potentially limit the risk of diseases like West Nile virus. 

 About Mega-Catch Mosquito Traps
Mega-Catch™ Traps/Attractants are registered with the USDA, EPA (U.S.A), PMRA (Canada) and APVMA (Australia).  Safe, non-toxic, and eco-friendly, Mega-Catch™ traps have been independently and scientifically tested, consistently outperforming other brands.
