Octenol, used in Mosquito Magnet traps, is an EPA registered secondary attractant that mimics human breath, drawing mosquitoes and biting insects to the trap.

Mosquito Magnet Octenol attracts most mosquito species, including salt marsh mosquitoes, as well as no-see-ums and black flies. It will lure biting insects to the Mosquito Magnetr trap where they are captured, then dehydrate and die.

Increase your catch rate up to 10 times!

Using a secondary attractant is critical to the performance of your Mosquito Magnet trap. Once mosquitoes sense the carbon dioxide from the Mosquito Magnet, they need secondary attractants, Octenol or Lurex3T, to hone in on the trap.
