SET UP AND USE
PROPER LOCATION:
Flying insects will always be more attracted to humans than to lights, however they will
gravitate to the strongest light source in the area.
We suggest when flying insects are very aggressive in your area, try and stay away from
the bug zapper for a few days with only the light of the zapper on. This will help lure
them into its trap and kill off the majority of insects. Depending on the insect population,
two weeks or more may be necessary to significantly reduce the population.
When determining where to place the unit for best results, locate a spot away from human
activity. Select a location within the insect's natural habitat including near bushes, low
trees and ground coverage such as Ivy. This will ensure the best possible results. Device
should also be placed between 6'-7' above the ground using the included chain. Suitable
hanging locations include from a tree, mounting pole, or other free standing object.
HOW TO USE:
1.
Unpack unit and save all packaging material for storage when season is over.
2.
Select the proper location as noted in above instructions.
3.
Plug the cord into a compatible extension cord if needed as noted in above electrical
instructions.
4.
Once plugged into powered outlet, the device is ready for
use.
5.
Press power button located under lid of device to turn on
unit (see Fig. 1)
6.
If using removable bottom tray, make sure to clean the
tray often of dead insects.
7.
If using over natural setting, remove tray permanently (see
instructions below) to allow zapped insects to fall freely
through onto the ground. This will eliminate the need to
clear away dead insects that can build up inside the tray.
8.
If zapping grid shows signs of accumulation of dead
insects on the live electrified grid, occasional cleaning of
wire grid may be required (see further instructions detailing this process).
9.
It is recommended that this unit be placed into use from early Spring until late Fall for
best results.
10. The device is designed to withstand moderate rain. If severe weather is expected,
it is recommended to remove this device and store indoors until severe weather has
passed.
11.
Unplug device when not in use.
