Programmable to multiple settings, the Ultra offers all the features of the Premier plus Mega-Catch’sTM patented Variable Quantity Slow CO2 Gas Release System. While Mega-Catch™ Mosquito Traps need no Carbon Dioxide (CO2) to attract mosquitoes; operation of the gas attractant system will boost capture rates by as much as 300-400%. It enables the Mega-Catch™ Ultra to replicate a key element of human/animal respiration by releasing small quantities of carbon dioxide (CO2) gas into the air plume.
The Mega-Catch™ Ultra has been put to the test in challenging places like the swamps of Florida and Far Northern Queensland in Australia. The test results showed that the trap significantly outperformed competing machines, including the Mosquito Magnet Liberty and Pro, in nearly every respect.
Testimonials:
“For years I had a bulky and difficult to use Mosquito Magnet, which was very temperamental and required CO2 and Propane changes. When it finally broke and repairs required us to send the heavy unit out of the region it was a problem because we would lose the machine and have to purchase another (nearly $349) because we needed to be insect free. I decided to try the Mega-Catch.
This machine is easy and I have not seen or been bitten by an insect in a month. Unlike our previous unit, this is light-weight, not impacted by unexpected rain, easy to move, does not make noise, and it was much cheaper to purchase and to maintain. We will throw the broken Mosquito Magnet Defender out!”

“The machine [Ultra] seems to be eliminating most of them as there are very few bugs annoying us. Anytime I have been close to the machine when it is running, I have noticed there are bugs swarming the machine at the site and when I empty the trap there has been a fair amount of bugs in the container, how many I am not sure, as I am really not into trying to count them. The site of the trap is at the extent of the 60 ft cord from the electrical outlet on our house, which is approximately where the tree line begins on our 2.75 acre lot. The site has worked well for us as it has kept the machine shaded for most part as recommended in the operation manual and at a spot closest to the source of the bugs. We are running the trap at setting #3 from 6am to 9am and then 6pm to 10 pm with the liquid catch container. Obviously, the more bugs, the more the machine is challenged but right now we are quite happy with the results and the bug situation. We also understand that when the bug population does increase the machine will not eliminate completely, but we are fairly confident that it will definitely help decrease the bug population to a level where we can be comfortable outside.”

“We are very happy users of 3 traps since 6-7 years back. Fantastic little machines – we have since then been able to enjoy the summers in a COMPLETELY different way! We use 3 traps, two up at an old farmhouse with a big 2 acre garden surrounded by a stream that stops “moving” in the summer (i.e. becomes a heaven for the mossies), and one at our beach residence where we do not really have a mosquito problem.
Up at the farmhouse, the traps when rigged and started up in early June, tend to catch around 500 – 1000 mossies / day for the first five to ten days. After that the daily “bag” is much smaller.
We keep the two machines about 100 meters apart.
Many thanks for your excellent customer support over the years – very generous and attentive.”
