National Hardware Show “Sneak Peek” # 5:

Having just visited beautiful Auckland, New Zealand, and now preparing for the National Hardware Show in Las Vegas, Don and I have a couple of things in common with this company. EnviroSafe Technologies, a privately held company based in Auckland, New Zealand, is know for developing one of the first environmentally friendly mosquito traps. Now, an established global brand, Mega-Catch™ mosquito traps, have been sold in over 40 countries around the world including Australia, Sweden, Norway, Italy, Argentina, and in the continent of North America. Mega-Catch™ mosquito traps are safe, non-toxic and eco-friendly, and, best of all, they do not require the use of harmful pesticides, fogs or sprays to kill mosquitoes.

Planned for display at the National Hardware Show next week, Mega-Catch™ 3000 has been formulated to increase capture rates of nuisance mosquitoes (including aedes albopictus, the Asian Tiger Mosquito) sand flies, black files, and biting midges (no-see-ums). The product is a combination lure incorporating synthetic Octenol, lactic acid and other ingredients. Michael Bremner, general manager, describes it as aromatherapy for mosquitoes.

Show attendees and media members will also be able to learn about the company’s new patent-pending Mega-Catch™ PRO 900 Series. Four new and improved models, the PRO 900 Series ALPHA, PREMIER (photo below), PREMIER XC, and ULTRA traps offer users features designed to increase capture rates and take the guesswork out of mosquito control. With more than 3,500 species of mosquitoes bothering and biting homeowners around the globe, these non-toxic and eco-friendly mosquito traps are safe and well worth considering.

If you are a member of the media and cannot attend the show this year, let us know any questions at deberly@eberlycollardpr.com . We can put you in touch with the folks that created Mega-Catch. Comments may be posted here, so let us know what you think.
