With the Mosquito Magnet® Patriot Plus, you can establish a defense zone for your home or business that drastically cuts back on the breeding population of biting insects. This CO2 mosquito trap targets all the biting insects you hate – mosquitoes, midges, no-see-ums and black flies. By using a mixture of attractants, including moisture, heat, CO2 and special scents, the Mosquito Magnet® lures biting insects to the machine where they’re sucked up inside the trap, ultimately dying from dehydration.
This unique mosquito trap is backed by 15 patents and more than two decades of research and innovation. The technology in Patriot Plus has been proven to effectively break the breeding cycles of mosquitoes. Each trap covers about 1 acre, requires a propane tank, attractant packs and nets, and it’s backed by a 1-year limited warranty.

How it Works
Mosquito Magnet® traps work using attractants that draw hungry, female mosquitoes, black flies, no-see-ums and midges to the machine. Once the mosquito flies close to the device, the CounterFlow vacuum sucks the insect into a net inside the trap. The powerful vacuum holds the mosquito in the net, where the insect dehydrates and dies. Each trap provides about 1 acre of control.
Counterflow Technology
Mosquito Magnet® machines use CounterFlow Technology to push out a trail of odorless attractants while also creating a powerful vacuum that traps mosquitoes and other insects.
CounterFlow Technology - follow the steps below:
Set the trap in your yard. It should be 30-40ft away from people and in the shade.
Trap's Patented technology converts propane to CO2. The CO2 released, attracts mosquitoes to the trap.
Secondary attractant mixed with CO2 attracts mosquitoes. It increases the mosquito catch rate by up to 10 times.
Patented technology. Mosquitoes get sucked into the plume and into the net.
Mosquitoes dehydrate and die in the net. Once in the net, mosquitoes will dehydrate and die within 24 hours.
Enjoy a mosquito free backyard!

"Works great. The net was almost full when the 1st tank of propane ran out. Using the R-Octenol in Northwest Wisconsin, (and it) has worked very well. Can be outside at sunset, and I don't even get bit." (Review from Up North Guy)

Bought it to control biting gnats as much as mosquitoes. Does a very good job of attracting them and fair job of trapping them. I added 2 sticky traps to sides and the results were amazing. Front yard still has swarms of gnats but back yard around Patriot magnet is significantly better. Have 2 acres total. Just need to get my neighbors on board to help.

This Really Works!

I have had this for two. This is amazing after trying everything except for a mosquito suite. I live in a shaded forested area. I start running this early spring. After a week or two there are No Mosquitoes at all. I have some friends that have been the major targets in the past. When they have came back they can not believe there are no Mosquitoes. Highly Recommended. My friends go out and buy one.

I have had this unit for 3 years. I can say that the 1st year it worked, kind of... (1 full basket of mosquito's
for 3 tanks of propane). the second year was even less. This year, on my 1st tank there was only maybe 10 mosquito's caught. Installed the 2nd tank of propane and now it just flashes an error. So I disassembled and cleaned the unit. Still has an error code. I am sure if the unit ran properly it would work. I just feel that from day one I got a unit that may have been not at 100%. I never knew what to expect as far as performance. From what I have read, I should be much more successful in obtaining an outdoor space this is usable in the short summers here. I have to say I am disappointed. I will contact customer service and see what it is going to cost me to get this unit repaired. :-(. As a side note, this unit is kept in a heated garage in the off season. I also replace the OCTENOL3CAN with every new tank of propane. Lastly, I clean it at the beginning of every season.

Well after 20 years..

Well after 20 years it finally bit the dust. My fault as I left it out this winter and it got buried under 6 to 8 feet of snow.
Everyone laughed at me when I first bought it (looked like a giant Cuisinart kitchen mixer), but now we know it really worked. My neighbors have all been complaining about how much worse the mosquitoes are this spring, figured it must be the (lack of) my mosquito magnet! None of us can even step outside the house without getting 4 to 5 bites!
Trying to figure out who buys the next one…
We used our patriot on our property problem free for 2 summers. It sure made a difference but unfortunately it didn’t work properly after those 2 summers. Followed the instructions by the book, stored indoors im when not in use, etc. Now we have have abandoned it, tried everything, took it apart, cleaned every single piece, tried all the troubleshooting and it will not work. Pretty big expense to only get 2 summer’s worth, sadly.

After two summers it has stopped working. Any videos or guidance on what could be the reason and how to repair it? It was a big investment for just 2 summers.
Thanks

Doesn't do its job

Even after various calls and iterations with different attractants, the machine only caught 20-30 mosquitoes over 2 summers. It seems to be useless and all of the troubleshooting, tips and attractants made no difference, just made me spend more money after an initial bad purchase.
We are sorry to hear about your experience. Placement plays an important role in the success of the trap. Feel free to contact us directly for trap placement tips. - Susan

The trap has been running for two months and used two tanks of gas. There has yet to be one mosquito in the bag - but they are still around because I have been bitten numerous times.
We're sorry to hear about this! It sounds like the trap may need to be moved. Please give us a call at 800-953-5737 so we can provide placement recommendations based on your yard layout. -Kathryn

We are on our 4th Magnet, bought my fist 2 off used marketplaces and loved them so bought 2 new Patriot Plus models one for camping and one for home. We are Mosquito free on our fenced in 3/4 acre and ir=ts completely shaded by huge oaks and covered on the ground in English Ivy, bugs havens. But they get sucked by the Magnet attractants as up soon as they are out hunting something to suck themselves.
Well it's the middle of winter so I don't actually have it put together yet. But my folks have one and it makes their lakeside home bearable for having fun in northern Wisconsin in the summer time. We live by a marsh in Minneapolis with close neighbors, hoping this makes our back yard bearable this summer, along with being a neighborhood hero! As far as shipping, it arrived in good shape. I wish the refills were a little cheaper is my only complaint.
Very pleased with my purchase. Ease in assembly and set up, only in use for two weeks and the number of kills is unbelievable. We live in a wooded area where mosquitoes are terrible. Highly recommend this product.
I need the lure bait for my patriot plus as I am in TX and the mosquito's in my area are the asian tiger type. What bait do I need and how can I purchase? My unit didn't come with one.
