Early spring mosquitoes awaken from winter hibernation or hatched from surviving eggs. Female mosquitoes and other biting insects require blood to nourish their eggs. Chilly and rainy conditions in the early spring keep most people indoors so we don’t realize that the mosquitoes have awakened. Early spring they feed on animals and birds, once we venture outdoors especially in the evening hours is when we notice them.

Early spring is the time to start up your SkeeterVac and let it run 24/7. The SkeeterVac uses propane to expel CO2 and to generate electricity needed to run the vacuum and LED lights to attract the mosquitoes. Octenol 1-octen-3-ol is also used as a bait to attract a variety of mosquitoes, black flies and other biting insects. 1-octen-3-ol is EPA safe for humans and the environment, 1-octen-3-ol is also currently being tested as a food preservative because of its antifungal activity.

Place your Skeetervac between the source, (wetlands, wooded areas or low lying areas), and your home. Every mosquito you catch now drastically reduces the population. A female mosquito can lay up to 20,000 eggs in her short life span.

Check around your property and dispose of any water-holding containers, drain planters of excess water. Drill holes in the bottom of any trash cans; recycle bins or any containers that must be left outside. Drain the water off your swimming pool cover once a week to prevent stagnant water.
