Rapid Action Green Octenol 4 pack
Rapid Action - Green Octenol 4-pack - For mosquitoes and gnats in Europe.
Rapid Action Green Octenol is an effective scent cartridge that enhances the attractant effect in your mosquito trap. The scent mimics human breath and the skin's natural odors, causing mosquitoes and gnats to perceive the machine as a human.
The green variant is designed to work optimally in areas where both mosquitoes and gnats are present.
Adapted for areas with both mosquitoes and gnats
The green scent contains a combination of Octenol (1-octen-3-ol) and lactic acid. The combination makes it particularly effective when several biting species are present simultaneously.
It is especially suitable for:
- Northern Europe
- Scandinavia
- Areas with both mosquitoes and gnats
Enhances the machine's effectiveness
Octenol acts as an attractant which, together with carbon dioxide, significantly increases the catch effect. When lactic acid is added, the attraction is broadened to more species.
- Lasts about 4 weeks
- Easy to install
- Optimizes the attractant effect
- Effective against both mosquitoes and gnats
For best results, the scent should be replaced regularly during the season.
Compatible with:
- AMT 200
- Predator Dynamic
- SkeeterVac
The scent cartridge lasts about 16 weeks.
