Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap

The Terminator Mosquito Killer Trap is one of the original tried and tested mosquito control products in the range.

Very effective in catching mosquitoes and other small flying insects including:

  • moths
  • guava moth
  • codling moth
  • aphids
  • sand flies
  • midges
  • and more

The Mosquito Killer is cleverly designed to simulate human prey through some of the latest features found in mosquito traps. A built-in heat plate to simulate human heat, a lure replicating human breath and sweat, a photocatalyst process that emits minute quantities of CO² and a UV light. All of the above are proven for increased performance in attracting pesky mosquitoes.

A powerful fan then creates a vacuum to suck the creatures into the extra-large catchment area, where they dehydrate and die. The design is for effective use outside and the mosquito killer trap is waterproof. Research has shown that placing the mosquito trap in a shaded area increases the mosquito capture rate and the unit will cover up to 1500m² area.

The optional Cigarette lighter adaptor (12 vaults) – makes the Terminator Mosquito Trap the ideal companion for all outdoor activities, even away from home. Camping / Boating and mosquitoes don’t have to be a problem anymore.

The Terminator Mosquito Trap works independently with these methods:

  • Carbon Dioxide—is the primary lure used and is produced by the Photocatalyst reaction of UV rays from the light source radiating onto a panel coated with Titanium Dioxide (TiO2).
  • CO² Photocatalyst—The Terminator Mosquito Trap can produce small amounts of Co2, which simulates what humans exhale.
  • Attractant—is a chemical produced by the human body and is sometimes referred to as “cow’s breath in a can” due to its smell. Mosquitoes seek this scent to find prey. The attractant emulates the human body odours and increases the catch rate up to 4 times. The attractant will last about 3-4 weeks.
  • Heat—the human body gives off heat, so too does this Terminator Mosquito Trap mimicking human prey.
  • Ultraviolet Light—mosquitoes are drawn towards ultraviolet light. The Terminator Mosquito Trap has an oscillating light to lure mosquitoes.
  • Dark Colour—mosquitoes are lured towards dark colours. This Terminator Mosquito Trap has been designed to take advantage of this.
  • Fan—when mosquitoes are lured and getting closer to the Terminator Mosquito Trap, they will be sucked into the catch container by a strong vacuum.

WHAT’S IN THE BOX:

IMPORTANT NOTE:

Your Terminator Mosquito Control Trap is designed to reduce the mosquito population. It may take several weeks of use to reduce the population to the point that your mosquito problem is under control. Your Terminator Mosquito Trap is not designed to compete with humans nearby, e.g. at a barbecue. When planning an outdoor event, you must operate the Terminator for an extended time before the event. It is advised that you run the Terminator 24/7 during the height of your mosquito season to ensure you can enjoy your outdoor activities.

If you require additional Boosters that are used to encourage more mosquitoes to the trap: click here

WHAT TO EXPECT:

While the Mozzie Trap will begin to catch immediately if there is any mosquito activity in the vicinity, it may take 6-8 weeks of use to reduce local populations to the point that breeding cycles are interrupted. You may discontinue the use of The Terminator at this point but subsequent re-infestation will occur after rain.

Pestrol Terminator Mosquito Trap is possibly the best way to trap mosquitos outdoors and it is one of the top-rated mosquito traps.  With the CO2 photocatalyst process, 360 degrees UV light to attract mosquitoes, moths, midges and many other insects and coverage of 1500m² makes this trap the most effective.  It is waterproof and suitable for 24 hours use outside. It is compact and very easy to install.

Q & A

How long is the lead cable? Where should the unit be placed in the backyard? Roger asked on 7 December 2024

Thank you for the update! The lead cable for the Pestrol Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap is 6 meters long. This provides ample length for positioning the unit in your backyard.

For optimal placement, it’s best to position the trap in a shaded area, away from strong winds, and close to areas where mosquitoes are likely to gather, such as near standing water or dense foliage.

How do they go with Gecko ? Or is there 1 you recommend for Gecko also Danny asked on 29 May 2024

Hey Danny,
The Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap is designed for insects. It traps by attracting the insects via a UV light, then a fan in the centre will pull them through into the trap chamber below where they dehydrate and die. The way this trap works wouldn't trap Geckos.

Just got my mozzie Zappa, but no instructions, what is the brass valve with blue plastic type of cap on it for? Robbie Menzani asked on 8 December 2023

Hey Robbie,
That little brass valve on your Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap is not a function we typically use here, but you can use that valve to connect a CO2 cannister to the trap to help lure in mosquitoes.
As these cannisters are not readily and easily available, we always recommend using the Terminator Boosters if you need to up the catching rate on your machine.

How can I buy a ballast for a Terminator? John asked on 20 November 2023

Hey John,
If you're after the Ballast for your Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap, you can find that part available on our website under Terminator Ballast, or just click that text to be taken to the item page!

Carl answered on 21 November 2023 store manager

I have this bug zapper but do you have to replace the little green square inside as not turning blue when on

Debbie Boorer answered on 28 January 2024 verified owner

Hey Debbie,
The Green Square inside your Terminator Mosquito Killer and Trap won’t have any bearing on the globe for your machine.

It sounds as though you need to get a replacement light for the unit, which you can find on our website with the link below

  1. Rubbish – it died after 6 months & Pestrol refused to refund it.
    They admitted it was faulty, and sent it back “repaired”, only it was missing parts and more broken than before.
    If you do buy one, good luck with their terrible customer service when you have to inevitably return it.

  3. Globe died after short time. Purchased 2 replacements to make most of postage. Within a month the transformer is dead. Replacement transformer is out of stock. I guess I’m not the only one. Waste of money and belongs in the garbage as pictured. Selling 2 replacement globes if interested plus postage haha

  12. Lasted 1 year and the internal controller blew up.
    Was on a timed circuit to turn on at dusk and turn off at sunrise.
    Cheap rubbish.

  13. I bought this for outside. Seem to be catching a lot of small moths, I can’t see the mosquitoes in the collection tray. However I have noticed a reduction in the mosquitoes on the verandah that hide behind the chairs and in the plants. I put it behind the chairs which isn’t quite what the instructions say. I leave it on 24/7. If it lasts a couple of years I would say it is worth the money compared to a normal bug zapper.

  14. This mozzie catcher is fantastic, it has caught so many mozzie and other bugs in a short period of time, very happy with the purchase, not so happy that this is our second trap, first one lasted just over a year, just out of the warranty period and because we had so many baits left from the first one we decided to get another. Hopefully this one will last bit longer….in saying that we have had it on 24/7, undercover at the recommended height….still we thought it should last longer than that.

  19. I love the terminator.
    I also bought a $15 24 Hour Timer 1 Socket for the terminator to turn on at dusk and turn off at dawn to ensure it is on every night during summer.
    It does the job and if I have a plague of mosiqotoes I do also spray the house/garden as no product can be 100%. I try to avoid using chemicals and why I bought the terminator.
    All I need now is all my neighbours to buy one.
