Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought two Liberty units a year ago - one died almost immediately with a fan failure, and the other just died recently for some unknown reason (it won't complete warm-up cycle). Warranty is out, so these look like they're going to be collecting dust in the shed until I feel like taking them apart and trying to figure out what is wrong.
There's a much easier way to control mosquitos. Get a bunch of five-gallon buckets, put three gallons of water in them, add some dish soap, and finally spray some WD-40 on the water. Mosquitos will try to lay their eggs in the water, and will get stuck because the WD-40 breaks the surface tension on the water. The dish soap will take care of any larvae that do manage to hatch. Place the buckets around your property (high enough so that your dog doesn't drink the water - won't hurt the dog, but will give it diarrhea from the soap) and check them from time to time. You'll be amazed at the number of mosquitos that get caught.

The Mosquito Magnet is the only mosquito trap with patented Counterflow Technology that will significantly reduce the mosquito population in your yard.
Constructed of stainless steel and covering one acre, the Mosquito Magnet Pro is ideal for golf courses, restaurants, and resorts, as well as large backyard environments.
How It Works
Will the Mosquito Magnet capture bees, moths, butterflies, ladybugs, or other beneficial insects? No. Blood seeking insects have receptors in their maxillary palps (mouth parts) that sense carbon dioxide. Non-blood seeking insects, without these receptors, are not attracted.
Is it possible to dramatically reduce the biting insect population in an area? Yes. 90% of the mosquitoes biting you live within 100 yards of where you are. The other 10% are brought in by the wind (most mosquitoes do not migrate). They cannot detect your carbon dioxide beyond 100 yards. As the females are trapped, the generations are eliminated, thereby interrupting the breeding cycle in that area. This usually occurs after 4 to 6 weeks of continuous use.
How many mosquitoes can I expect to capture? The quantity of mosquitoes caught varies greatly, depending on your region's infestation level and how it is placed on your property. In tests in the Florida Everglades (high infestation) 1,500 were captured in one night. In more urban areas, catch results may be much less. A good yardstick is "Am I being bitten?"
What maintenance is necessary to keep the Mosquito Magnet running effectively? The propane tank and octenol cartridge should be replaced every 21 days. We recommend having a full tank on-hand to swap out. The mosquitoes will quickly repopulate if the Mosquito Magnet is turned off. The net should be emptied when it is half full.
What other fuel can be used to run the Mosquito Magnet? Any combination of propane and butane can be used, including pure butane. Natural gas cannot be used.
Is the Mosquito Magnet cost-effective? Yes. Estimated propane costs are $10 - $12 per month. The Mosquito Magnet Liberty consumes about the same electricity as an electric clock.
Is the Mosquito Magnet quiet? Yes. The only moving part is the internal fan, which is virtually silent.
When can the Mosquito Magnet be turned off? The Mosquito Magnet should run continuously to catch both day- and night-biting mosquitoes until the temperature is consistently below 50º F.
