Woodstream is recalling approximately 28,000 Mosquito Magnet traps because they can become damaged if cleaned while powered on using the company's Quick Clear Cartridge kits. This defect can cause pieces of the regulator to break and be propelled from the unit, posing a physical injury risk. The recall includes Independence, Executive, Commander, and Patriot models sold in green or green/gray colors with black and green stands between December 2014 and December 2016. Woodstream is providing a free repair for the regulator hose.
If the trap is cleaned with a Quick Clear Cartridge while the power is on, the regulator can fail and forcibly eject broken metal or plastic pieces. One incident of regulator damage has been reported, though no injuries have occurred yet.
Consumers should immediately stop using the Quick Clear Cartridge kits on recalled mosquito magnet traps and contact Woodstream for a free repair of the regulator hose.
