Mosquito Magnet 3-Pack Lurex3 Attractant – attracts day-biting Asian Tiger Mosquitoes and other mosquito species, no-see-ums and black flies

This product (Lurex) works with all models of the Mosquito Magnet and with many models of the SkeeterVac. I have found that it does seem to increase the catch rate of the daytime biting Tiger mosquitoes over just using the CO2/heat/moisture of the MM/SV alone. However you'll need Octenol for all of the night biters so unless you have multiple traps around your yard (as I do) you'll need to pick & choose which type of mosquito is most prevalent in your area. (I read elsewhere that Tiger mosquitoes are actually repelled by Octenol so sadly you really do have to pick & choose one.)Oddly, on my SkeeterVac's TacTrap (SkeeterVac CPSX000021 TacTrap Replacements) I've discovered that other pests seem to prefer either Lurex or Octenol too (Mosquito Magnet OCTENOL3 Octenol Biting Insect Attractant, 3-Pack). Flying cockroaches, for example, are most commonly trapped in my SkeeterVac TacTrap running Lurex, while horse flies and house flies seem to prefer getting stuck in the SkeeterVac TacTrap running Octenol. Gnats and no-see-ums get stuck both places and/or vacuumed up into the SV (Blue Rhino SV3100 SkeeterVac Mosquito Eliminator, 1-Acre Coverage) or MM (Mosquito Magnet MM4100 Patriot Mosquito Trap) fan/screen trap.

I thought this stuff seemed like a cash grab. Nope, within minutes of adding the cartridge to my mosquito magnet, the annoying Cloud of mosquitos was drawn away from us and flew to the machine.After a day, there was a very noticeable drop in the blood sucking bastards.That being said, this stuff should be cheaper and the machine should come with a three month supply of attractant at least.

I'm located in Houston, Texas, and these attractants have worked very well for us in our MM4100 for the past 2 months. I live in an area where we have a fair amount of mosquitos, but not an overabundance (before the MM, we didn't really get bit too often during the daytime or late evening, mainly at dawn and dusk). I'd estimate that we've caught between 5 and 20 mosquitos a day: more after first setting up the MM and with peaks after periods of rain. Now, we don't see many mosquitos at all (granted recent "cooler" weather is also helping this out also)I've yet to use octenol-based in Houston, so I can't make much of a comparison. Only down side is that they seem to drop in effectiveness at about 3-4 weeks and aren't exactly cheap.

Mosquito magnet worked 1 year only, did work well but only 1 season

Decided to buy this attractant for my Flowtron heavy duty insect zapper because i read one reviewer say that he zip tied the plastic canister to the outside grill of the unit. IT IS WORKING GREAT to attract those mosquitos and as they haphazardly fly around it, they inevitably get near the electric grill and get zapped! That’s the point right?! So, although it’s meant to be inserted into a different device, it is working for mine as well. This is a great price for 3 canisters of Lurex3 which is what i need for south FLA.... Thanks to the reviewer for the idea of attaching to Flowtron device.. and thanks to Wodstream for making a powerful Lurex3 attractant in a strong plastic container that seems to not let water in and enough holes to let the product out into the air.

Tried these lures in our brand new Blue Rhino Mosquito Magnet machine and barely caught a mosquito. We have plenty of the Asian Tiger variety in the backyard but nearly none were sucked into the machine the first month. Spoke with Blue Rhino to make sure the machine was functional (it was) so they suspected the bait wasn't right. Ultimately I wasn't sure which to blame, so sent these cartridges back and then sent the machine back the next day. Will try again next spring.

Can't give an honest review as I used this on a trap that wasn't a Mosquito Magnet which is what it is designed for.I purchased a Mega Catch with C02 and put this product in the section with the wet catch and where other lures are designed to go. Researching the Mosquito Magnet it had way too many failure problems and a customer service that wouldn't supply any repair parts so they lost my business. This product was for the Asian Tiger Mosquito which we seemed to be loaded with. My trap actually will catch and kill the Tigers without lures but I used this and other lures also to increase catch rates. I killed a lot but not sure if this was any factor in the catch rates.I highly recommend the Mega Catch trap.

These arrived very quickly. Great product for.use with the Mosquito Magnet. It even attracts deer flies to it, not just the gnats and mosquitos. We have a mixture of woods, our huge yard, a pond a horse stable in the back so bugs and flies are terrible in the summer. This is a must have or we would not be able to hang out and swim,
