Reported risk: This recall involves Mosquito Magnet traps and Quick Clear Cartridge kits. The traps are designed to attract and capture mosquitos and other insects into the vacuum, where they dehydrate and die. The traps connect to a 20 gallon propane tank and measure about 30 to 35 inches tall. They were sold in green or green/gray combination with a black and green plastic stand. "Mosquito Magnet" is printed on the top front of the units. The model name, model number and serial number are printed on the back of the traps. The traps use Woodstream's Quick Clear Cartridge kits to clean out the nozzle after changing propane tanks. The following models are included in the recall: Model Model Number Serial Number Independence MM3200 IN01450- IN01625 Executive MM3300 EX01444- EX01630 Commander MM3400 CM01503- CM01621 Patriot MM4100 PT01438- PT01542 Patriot/Patriot Plus MM4200 PT0142- PT01642 Hazards: The recalled mosquito traps can become damaged if cleaning it while powered on with the company's Quick Clear Cartridge kits and can propel broken pieces of the regulator, posing an injury hazard to consumers.
