One of Mosquito Magnet® traps' keys to success is in the makeup of the attractants they use to ensure mosquitoes are drawn into their nets. Our EPA-registered attractants make this happen! Mosquitoes are attracted to humans due to carbon dioxide and scents on our skin. These mosquito attractants mimic the naturally occurring scents on human skin.

Attractants work with the carbon dioxide released by the propane to effectively lure mosquitoes to their demise. The attractants include Lurex and Octenol mosquito attractants. Octenol is also a biting insect attractant, luring in biting midges, black flies and non-biting midges! When used in a Mosquito Magnet®, and replaced every 21 days, attractants increase your magnet's catch rate up to 10 times! Additionally, the Lurex3 attractant is the only attractant in the market proven to attract the Asian Tiger mosquito.
With our attractants, your Mosquito Magnet® trap imitates a human, attracting all of the mosquitoes in your yard and leaving your back yard a bite-free zone!
