The moderately-priced Skeeter Vac offers a variety of high-tech attractant and capture methods, including their unique Fine Tune bait which optimizes use of Octenol to best suit your individual mosquito population. The unit is comparable in technology and coverage to the heavy-duty Mosquito Magnet units, but it runs on Propane alone and requires no electricity.
This is an older model - for newer products, see our reviews of the Skeetervac CPSV3100 and CPSV5100.
