ABOUT YOUR MOSQUITO PREVENTER

your way to preventing mosquitoes in your outdoor living areas. Just a reminder

mosquitoes that otherwise would be multiplying in your backyard.

Please carefully read through this manual to understand how to use and

HOW TO SETUP YOUR MOSQUITO PREVENTER FOR THE FIRST TIME

Step 1: Open the box & remove
product from packaging.

Step 2: Separate the Breeding-Zone
from the Bottom Reservoir.

Step 3: Peel along the dotted line on the
Landing Strip’s packaging. Remove
out the TWO Landing Strips from
their plastic packaging. Gently peel
off the Glue Protection plastic.
Ensure that the Glue Protection
side of the strips are facing down.
Align the slots of the Landing

HOW TO MAINTAIN YOUR MOSQUITO PREVENTER

It is crucial that you keep up with the maintenance of your Mosquito Preventer
in order to keep mosquitoes coming back to the unit. Follow these steps on a
observational and monthly schedule to keep your unit running at peak
performance.

OBSERVATIONAL MAINTENANCE

A visual inspection is required that won’t take too much time.
Follow these steps:

1. Ensure Breeding-Zone and Bottom Reservoir have enough water and are
free from debris.

If the Breeding-Zone water level has dropped, simply press the raise/add
water button on the Remote to raise the water level in the Breeding-Zone.

2. Ensure that the Landing Strips are still
secured to the top of the Breeding-Zone.

6)

MONTHLY MAINTENANCE (EVERY 30 DAYS)

Every 30 days we recommend you replace certain elements of the Mosquito
Preventer. Ask the retailer, or place where you purchased your unit if they carry

the Reactor Kits. You can also order the Reactor Kit online at
www.green-strike.com/shop.

Follow these steps:

1. Drain water from the Breeding-Zone by pushing the drain handle.

2. Dump the water from the Bottom Reservoir.
*See note in WARNINGS, page 1 for dumping area

3. Rell the Bottom Reservoir up to the ll line
with either rain or distilled water (to prevent
calcium buildup) as indicated on the viewing
window.

4. Replace the Reactor.

Remove the previous month’s Reactor
and place it in a resealable bag.

5. Replace both of the Landing Strips.

Place both of the used Landing Strips in the
resealable bag with the Reactor. Place this
bag directly into the trash. Avoid placing it
in wet or moist trash.

END OF SEASON MAINTENANCE

Follow steps 1, and 2 from the monthly maintenance. 3. Wash, dry and store the
Mosquito Preventer in an upright position and in a dry place.

WHERE TO PLACE THE MOSQUITO PREVENTER

Your land for where mosquitoes are currently breeding. Eliminate as many
alternative breeding spots for mosquitoes as possible.

These May Include:

• Yard Waste

• Lawn Clippings

• Clogged Gutters/Eavestroughs

• Bird Baths

• Any Other Stagnant Water

The goal is to encourage the female
mosquito to lay their eggs in the
Mosquito Preventer.

TRY TO PLACE THE MOSQUITO PREVENTER IN A SPOT THAT MEETS AS
MUCH OF THE BELOW CRITERIA AS POSSIBLE:

1) ALL DAY SHADE

This ensures the temperature of the
unit is ideal to attract female mosquitoes.
Mosquitoes like to stay in shaded areas
during dormant periods.

2) PROTECTION FROM WIND

Mosquitoes are not great at ying. They
prefer to have little to no wind and will
choose their breeding spots in an area
that best protects themselves and their
eggs from high winds.

3) LOTS OF VEGETATION

The more “green” in or around the
preventer the better. The nutrients,
minerals and proteins found in ponds
are ideal for mosquitoes to lay their eggs.

If you have two (2) Mosquito Preventers:

The more Mosquito Preventers in your yard, the better the units will work.
Educate your neighbours on the steps you’ve been taking to prevent
mosquitoes from multiplying in your yard.

Place your Mosquito Preventers
approximately 20 meters apart.

NOTES
