Mosquito Magnet Liberty Plus Review - model MM3100
The Liberty Plus by Mosquito Magnet ™ is a state-of-the-art, cordless insect control machine which uses propane to create CO2 - one of the most effective mosquito attractants - to capture and kill mosquito colonies.
Like the other Mosquito Magnet products, the Liberty Plus can be used with ocetnol or lurex3 - a scent attractant which is more enticing to day-biting asian tiger mosquitos, a known carrier of West Nile virus.
This unit has a 1 year warantee.
