Mosquito MagnetReplacement Net for Patriot/Defender Mosquito Trap MM4000NET

I bought this replacement net to have as a spare so I could just swap them out when I changed propane tanks. When I first bought my Mosquito Magnet I noticed that when the net got full and I needed to dump it out there were always a few live Mosquitoes in the trap in addition to the huge pile of dead ones. I really did not want to practice "catch and release" on these pests I had tried so hard to catch so it only made sense to have a spare on hand so I could pull out the full one and give it a day or two for the remaining live bugs to die before dumping it. Do you have to have a spare? No, not really. Does it ever need to be replaced? If you punch a hole in it or run over it with a lawnmower, yes. But I really don't see how it would ever wear out as long as you treated it with the respect plastic parts deserve. Over time the screen will get full of pollen etc so a blast of air or from the hose is really all the cleaning I ever do.

I took a look at the net in my Defender the other day and it looked dirty, worn out, and just plain used. I found this item on Amazon at a really good price; $20 bucks cheaper than some other sites. I received the item promptly and immediately replaced my "old" net with no interruption in mosquito catching. One of the other reviews said that the nets were washable (they weren't on my Liberty). I tried washing it and was amazed at how clean I was able to get it. I'm glad I have a spare, but now, I'm not sure I needed one.

Happy I found this accessory my dumbo BF through the entire cage into the fire and this replacement was perfect

Easy purchase, quick arrival. Pretty expensive considering what it really is, but you really do need this. You can let the bugs die in here while you put a clean one back in the mosquito magnet.

A+
