Capture Net

The MKS capture net is mainly used for Biting Insect Control Monitoring Programs. If you find that you have a midge infestation, it may be necessary to use the fine net to aid in their capture

Co2 Tank
 
The Arctic MKS uses CO2 as one of the attractants. This is stored in a small tank weighing approx 10kg. And is placed within a cage that forms part of the Arctic MKS base. This cage ensures that the tank does not fall over. The tank, if used correctly, will last for approximately 30 days and can be refilled or replaced at local suppliers. The CO2 is beverage & health usage grade (99.5% pure).

Co2 tank is not supplied with the MKS.

The amount of CO2 released by the MKS is equivalent to a barbeque weekend with four friends.
