Have all the accessories you need to keep your Mosquito Magnet® Patriot trap performing at its peak with this 2-month accessory bundle! Buy Patriot trap refills to save a bundle on your outdoor mosquito control. This 2-month Patriot trap refills bundle is for northern & coastal regions and includes 3 Patriot nets and 3 Octenol cartridges.
Nets that are clogged with dead mosquitoes, spiders, pollen and dust will have an adverse effect on the vacuum’s ability (airflow) of your Mosquito Magnet® Patriot trap and prevent it from working at its best. Start each season with a new Mosquito Magnet® Patriot Net and replace every 21 days or sooner if necessary. The rigid bag is self-contained, allowing for easy disposal and replacement. Whether constructed with rigid nets or nets with drawstrings, our self-contained nets eliminate any direct contact with the dead insects.
The EPA registered Mosquito Magnet® Octenol is a secondary attractant the mimics human breath, drawing mosquitoes and biting insects to the trap. Mosquito Magnet® Octenol attracts most mosquito species, including salt marsh mosquitoes, as well as no-see-ums and black flies. It will lure biting insects to the Mosquito Magnet® trap where they are captured, then dehydrate and die. People who live in northern & coastal regions should use Octenol to attract mosquitoes, no-see-ums and black flies. The Mosquito Magnet® Octenol cartridge should be replaced every 21 days. After 21 days of use, the cartridge appears the same; however, it will no longer be effective as the Octenol will have been released. The catch rate will be reduced if the attractant is not changed.

I noticed a decline in biting mosquitoes within a few days since I received my order of mosquito magnet. I will be changing the octenol & the bag today 06/27 as it has been operating 26 days. I enjoy going out in my yard again now that I don't get swarmed by mosquitoes.
It is a little to early for mosquitoes and Mother Nature covered them with a foot of snow and zero temperatures. I will be ready for them with two Patriots when the thaw comes near Lake Superior
I used to have real problems when working in my yard with mosquitoes everywhere. Put in the Mosquito Magnet and after about a month - no more problems. No spraying (ineffective anyway), and no more problems! Great product and does just what I wanted.
Bought it a Lowes 3yrs ago ... Only problem is Lowes doesn't sell replacement bait "octenol" or any other accessories . When you buy online, your only option is to buy more than you need.. You can't just purchase 1 box of bait.
I'm a first time user and so far I'm impressed. The nylon mesh bag gets full of mosquitoes rapidly. Too early for long term projections but it sure does pack them in. There is usually a cloud of bugs around the device all the time. I'm hopeful that this continues.
