Recommended Types of Gas Cylinders and Sources
In order to supply the trap with the carbon
dioxide (CO
) attractant, a commercially
2
available CO
gas cylinder with 6 or more ki-
2
lograms is required. These can be acquired
or rented at drink retailers or bottle depots
for a deposit.
Criteria for Positioning the CO
•
The CO
gas cylinder must be securely
2
placed in a vertical position. It should
be fixed with ropes or cords to prevent it
from falling over.
•
The CO
cylinder should not be exposed
2
to direct sunlight, intense heat, extreme
cold, or frost.
ATTENTION: Check and make sure that the-
re is enough carbon dioxide in the CO
cylinder by checking the pressure gauge on
the pressure reducing regulator. If the pres-
sure gauge is at 0, then the CO
needs to be replaced.
The BG-Booster CO2 can be used with carbon dioxide included in the review programme of the BPR (EU
528/2012) as an attractant.
Where applicable, a door-to-door delivery
service is also possible. A 10 kg gas cylinder
is recommended, which is also used in res-
taurants to draft beer and in soda machines.

The pressure reducing regulator needs
to be protected from rain, for example,
through a clear plastic bag or by being
placed under shelter.
People, children, and animals should not
be able to trip over the electric cables or
CO
tube.
