Product Description

Mega Catch Ultra CO2 Mosquito Trap provide exceptional and trouble free mosquito control for all situations. Mega catch ultra mosquito control traps can attract mosquitoes from as far away as 150 feet. Mega catch mosquito trap incorporates all the sophisticated design features of the premier trap plus mega-catch's patented variable quantity slow co2 gas release system to increase capture rates of most mosquito species by between 300 and 400%. The programmable system enables the ultra to duplicate a key feature of human respiration by slowly releasing small quantities of co2 into the air plume emanating from the base of the trap. Mosquito control traps comes with the mega-catch patented "Variable Quantity Slow CO2 Gas Release System". Use of this system is entirely optional i.e. while the system is designed to increase capture rates it is not essential to the effective operation of the Trap. Operation of the optional co2 gas attractant system enables the ultra trap to replicate a key feature of human respiration by releasing small quantities of co2 (carbon dioxide).

5.0 out of 5 stars Outcatches Mosquito Magnet hands down, June 22, 2008

This review is from: Mega Catch Ultra Mosquito Control Trap

I live in central NC. I currently have a mosquito magnet liberty plus in my 1 acre yard. I have had the magnet for 3-4 years. The magnet is very, very problematic. I was looking for something that was a lot cheaper to run and was easily self repairable vs the magnet. I wound up purchasing the Ultra with CO2 bottle from the manufactures web site.

I have only had the Ultra for 1-week. In two days, it had captured at least 5 times more mosquitoes/biting insects than my magnet has all month. I am using the magnet with Lurex, and the Ultra with co2, octenol and light. I'm using the wet-capture system. From past experience, I don't think using Octenol vs Lurex in my magnet would have improved the catch results. After the lurex runs out, I'll swap with octenol to give it a better magnet vs ultra comparison. However, I suspect the Ultra will just simply destroy the magnet in my tests. My magnet NEVER has seen this amount of biting insects captured, ever.

Only time will tell how well the Ultra performs, so I will update this review after a few months

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Mosquito Traps, January 30, 2009

This review is from: Mega Catch Ultra Mosquito Control Trap

Last season mosquitoes and midges were so severe the backyard was placed "off limits". I'd seen Megacatch traps advertised in SkyMall and liked the fact that they don't burn propane 24/7 like other mosquito traps, something I find really scarey with young children running around. We decided to go all out and buy 2 Alphas and an Ultra. After reading the instructions carefully on where best to place them (this is key!) within 2 weeks our problem was largely gone and the backyard was ours again. They're so easy to use and look after. Its so simple to change out lures and empty the catch containers (can't say the same about my printer ribbon tho!!) Can't thank you enough Megacatch. We'll be setting up and buying lures early this season for sure.

This review is from: Mega Catch Ultra Mosquito Control Trap

I have had two of the Mega-Catch Ultra traps for five years and I have nothing but praise for them. Not only do they catch mosquitoes but also those black flies that look like house flies but bite like crazy. And the customer service is the best I have ever received on any item I've purchased on the net. Take a look at the testimonials at www.megacatch.com, I don't doubt for a minute that they're all authentic. The bad review here about this product sounds like a competitor to me!
