CDC Miniature Light Trap with Incandescent Light

CDC Miniature Light Trap Model 512

The Standard Portable Tool for Mosquito and Sand Fly Collection in Arbovirus and Taxonomic Studies

The CDC Miniature Light Trap Model 512 was developed by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control to provide a reliable and portable sampling device for the collection of mosquitoes and sand flies. Used worldwide in arbovirus and taxonomic studies, this battery-operated trap has become a standard survey tool for mosquito control operations. This basic trap is capable of once-a-day tending when fitted with the optionally available PhotoSwitch and Air-Actuated Gate System. When configured with a switch and gate, it is possible, with only a small battery, to collect for 3 or 4 nights with only one trip to the trap.

This product does not include a battery. It is sold separately.
