New Mosquito Vacuum By Stinger Takes The Bite Out Of Backyard Living

Kaz, Inc., a leading global manufacturer of quality healthcare and home comfort products, is proud to launch the Stinger family of Mosquito Vacuums this spring at Home Depot and Lowe's stores nationwide.  Mosquito Vacuums provide long-term family protection and backyard comfort using the latest propane-fueled, insect control technology developed specifically to reduce annoying biting mosquitoes and the risk of dangerous mosquito-borne illnesses.

In 2007, the U.S. Center for Disease Control recorded over 3,500 human cases of West Nile Virus resulting in 109 deaths.  Eastern Equine Encephalitis and Dog Heartworm – both spread by mosquitoes -- pose significant and continued threats this year and recent reports from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases state that the appearance of Dengue Fever in the U.S. is a real possibility. These major health concerns should encourage homeowners to get a jump on protecting their backyards before female mosquito breeding cycles begin.

According to Kristin Anderson, Stinger Brand Manager for Kaz, "These mosquito devices are the best in the business, designed to provide an effective, long-term solution to reducing backyard mosquito populations.  The new Stinger Mosquito Vacuum combines proven mosquito-attracting science, powerful vacuum technology, and a reliable clog-free design to ensure consumers are getting high-quality mosquito control at an affordable price."

Chemical sprays, candles and lotions offer only temporary and potentially harmful relief from mosquitoes, but the Stinger Mosquito Vacuum is odorless and silent; providing continuous 24-hour protection from mosquitoes, black flies, gnats, and no-see-ums all season long. 

Created by engineers with extensive mosquito control device expertise, independent tests show Mosquito Vacuums outperform the competition because of the product's unique combination of carbon dioxide (CO2), heat, moisture and exclusive EPA-approved multi-scent bait, making Mosquito Vacuum more effective than any other trapping device sold at retail today.

Burning the same propane as barbeque grills, the Mosquito Vacuum creates an alluring bio-signature similar to a living host, mimicking human breath and body heat to attract and kill hungry female mosquitoes in up to one-acre range. Combining CO2, heat, moisture, visual cues, and scent, the Mosquito Vacuum lures female mosquitoes into the inescapable and easy-to-clean bug basket. Attractively designed to fit any décor, the vacuum works 24-hours a day attracting and trapping night and day-feeding mosquitoes, with noticeable results expected in a one-acre range within 30 days. The Mosquito Vacuum offers no-tool assembly, one-touch electronic ignition, on-trap troubleshooting, and storage for bait cartridges.
