Mosquito Magnet R-Octenol 3-Pack - Original Scent for Maximum Effect
Mosquito Magnet R-Octenol 3-pack is the original scent developed to be used together with Mosquito Magnet mosquito traps. When R-Octenol is combined with the machine's carbon dioxide output, the attraction effect is enhanced and more mosquitoes and midges are drawn to the trap.
This is an important consumable to maintain high capture efficiency throughout the entire season.
3-Pack – Up to 90 Days of Protection
The package contains:
- 3 R-Octenol scent cartridges
- Approximately 30 days of effect per cartridge
- Total usage up to 90 days
A practical choice for those who want to be prepared for the entire mosquito season.
How R-Octenol Works
R-Octenol (R-1-octen-3-ol) is an attractant that mimics human scent. Together with carbon dioxide, it causes mosquitoes to perceive the trap as a host.
The result is:
• Increased attraction • Improved capture efficiency • More effective reduction of mosquito populations over time
For best results, the scent cartridge should be replaced approximately every 30 days.
Compatible with Mosquito Magnet Models:
- Pioneer
- Executive
- Independence
- Patriot
