Australia’s Strongest Mosquito Killer Trap
This is the best mosquito killer trap for Australian conditions that combines 4-way protection to maximize the mosquito capturing ability.
Take a stand against flying insects with our brand new Mosquito Eater – Mosquito Killer Trap. Comes complete with a stand and the additional pulling power of water to achieve backyard insect control. The unit and stand equate to 1.1 metres in height and the trap draws 15W of electricity. (Less than most lightbulbs)
We all appreciate the dangers of mosquitoes in Australia, however, now we have a product that can take an extra step to assist with the fight. Our newly introduced Mosquito Killer Trap is exactly that. This trap has 4-way protection and that is why this trap is fastly becoming our most popular:
- A UF fluorescent bulb generates a warm light that attracts flying insects towards the mosquito trap.
- Our second advantage is our strongly coated surface that produces Tio2 titanium dioxide. This process produces small quantities of CO2, the same gas we exhale that attracts the female mosquito, the one that bites us.
- This is our only trap that users a water tray around the trap, this attracts mosquitoes for laying eggs.
- Finally our powerful, yet whisper-quiet vacuum fan collects all the insects and retains them in the holding chamber, where they dehydrate and die.
- Optional: Try the optional irresistible Mosquito Booster that you can add to the holding chamber to encourage the mosquitoes to the trap and greatly improve your mosquito catch rate.

Frequently Asked Questions about the Mozzie Eater Mosquito Trap:
What is the best mosquito Trap?
Pestrol is the largest supplier of DIY pest control solutions and has the biggest range of Mosquito Traps on the Australian market. Depending on the size and area that you wish to control, from indoors to outdoors, look at our full range.
Do mosquito traps work?
Pestrol has been in business close to 20 years, over which time we have sold literally 10’s of thousands of mosquito traps. Mosquito traps are a great way of breaking the breeding cycle and eliminating mosquitoes in and around your property. Pestrol prides itself on using chemical-free products and our mosquito traps use the power of warm light and many other mosquitoes attracting technologies to bring the mosquitoes close to the machine, from where they get sucked down into a dry storage chamber and die.
How do I trap mosquitoes in my house?
Pestrol has a range of indoor mosquito traps to assist with reducing the annoyance of getting bitten indoors or not sleeping due to the sound of mosquitoes buzzing around our heads. Check out the Assassin Mosquito Trap and also our Sleep Easy Trap.
Does UV light attract mosquitoes?
UV light attracts mosquitoes in a variety of ways. Firstly the frequency that the light produces attracts mosquitoes towards the light source, secondly, the warmth that is created replicates humans and this further is used as an attractant to get the mosquitoes away from us and towards the mosquito trap.
How long has the Mosquito Eater Mosquito Trap been on the market in Australia?
The Mosquito Eater is the newest edition of our outdoor range of mosquito control products. Having been released in October 2019, we believe that the increased feature of the water tray around the top of the unit will assist with attracting more mosquitoes that are looking for water to breed. Our team in the office tested the trap last summer and as a result, this is why we have added it to our range.
Is the Mosquito Eater trap noisy?
No, just a small computer like a fan that is used to create downdraft to suck mosquitoes into the dry storage chamber, from where they cannot escape and dehydrate and die.
How long does it take for the Mozzie Eater trap to work?
Unfortunately, this is not an immediate solution. That is, you can’t just turn the light on and all the mosquitoes in the area are gone. This process is about elimination over time and breaking the breeding cycle. You will find that you will have a noticeable difference after the first week, but a complete reduction within 3-4 weeks. You can increase your mosquito trap catching ability by using the optional attractant to place in the water. This acts as a supercharging effect and mosquitoes are drawn to the irresistible lure and many more mosquitoes are caught and trapped inside the mosquito trap.
Is it easy to set up the Mosquito Eater Trap?
Yes, literally take it out of the box, connect the stand to the base in 3 easy steps, find a powerpoint and switch it on.
Where should I place the Mosquito Eater?
Place the mozzie trap away from any other competing light, preferably in a cooler, shaded area. We recommend moving it at least 20 feet from your preferred outdoor sitting or dining areas.
What other insects does it control other than mosquitoes?
The Mosquito Eater Mozzie Trap attracts and kills many flying insects including mosquitoes, biting flies, Asian beetles, no see-ums, wasps, hornets, moths, stink bugs, and more. The Mosquito Killer Trap will not catch butterflies, honeybees or bumblebees as they are not attracted to CO2 or light.
Is it safe to use around my family and pets?
Yes, as this trap is chemical-free, it is safe to use around your family and pets. This product also has all the electrical approvals for Australia and NZ standards.

Excellent unit did the job no problems got rid of our mozzie problem
Peter (verified owner) –
East to assemble and within a week of operation most of the mozzies had disappeared from my front yard. I do have to empty the catch can daily due to amount of small moths that get caught inside the trap housing.

Michael T. (verified owner) –
I cannot recommend this product more highly. It was impossible for me to sit down outside without being bit by mosquito’s. After just a week using the Mosquito Eater, the outdoor environment has totally changed for me. I can now sit outside until late at night without a suffering a Mosquito bite. Fabulous product.

The blurb said this would take a couple of weeks to start working, but that wasn’t the case. Within days our mosquito ‘cloud’ had disappeared. This is an excellent product.
Lily (verified owner) –
Effectively catching a lot of bugs and so far no mosquito bites.

Worked like a charm, though I wish it would get the midges as well!
Michael (verified owner) –
The mosquito eater is amazing. Before I had to cover myself in Deet when I need to spend anytime outside. Now I don’t have to. It truly works. Highly recommended.
Michael C. (verified owner) –
Amazing! Made a real difference to the mosquitoe population. Previously I had Cover myself with Deet to avoid being eaten but now there’s no need to. Highly recommended
Joseph Herbert-Sadler (verified owner) –
Very easy to use and is efficient for what it’s for, I am very happy with it
Matt G. (verified owner) –
Great around your outdoor entertaining area quiet, needs to be a little sturdier in the base as wind does affect and the water tray evaporates daily in the warmer weather and fills with moths. Works really well but you must keep it emptied regularly. Wont work well if house lights draw the attention of the insects over the UV light….keep house lights to a minimum.
Kim E. (verified owner) –
The Mosquito Eater is a amazing product. Took a few minutes to erect plug it in to a power point and then leave it. Every night the UV light and fan turns on and in the morning the bottom tray is full of died mossies months and midiees, using no poison sprays. Thank you Pestrol
Roystan (verified owner) –
The item seems great build quality. I can’t really comment on its effectiveness yet as its cooling down here in Melbourne but I am hopeful. The delivery was quick and smooth but I am knocking 1 star as I never received an email confirming order or even a delivery. The only email I have received is for this review.

Seems to be working very well. The number of biting insects outside has greatly reduced over the past few weeks.
James (verified owner) –
Got this approx. 6 weeks ago. We had a lot of mosquitoes that hung around our front/back doors at night, getting in when the door was opened. Have definitely noticed that they have reduced if not completely gone now. I had it running 24/7 up until just now. Have put it on to night time mode to see if it still works ok. Will do an update if I fond any issues.
Frank (verified owner) –
Used now for about 3 weeks. I cleared out my mosquitoes, as well as my neighbours (they even came over to tell me). Use water to help draw them in as described. Very high kill rate. You get the odd one here and there, but mainly after it rains. Do remove other water sources around area. Back deck can be used to entertain with wife loving it having friends over with daylight saving and not getting bitten. Dragon flys moved to front of the house now to have a feed. Well worth it.
