GAS RESET TOOL INSTRUCTIONS If your Mosquito Magnet fails to start, it may be the result of poor gas flow from the propane tank through the regulator to the trap.

The Quick-Clear valve is a gold, threaded knob located on the back of your trap. It should be used with the black and gold, L-shaped adapter included in the box with your Mosquito Magnet, and a 12 gram threaded CO cylinder available on our website at www.mosquitomagnet.com...
