Getting Rid of Insects














Information brought to you by Mitre 10.

During the summer months you'll notice an increase in flies, fleas and mosquitoes around the home. Thankfully RoboCan® 2 provides a safe way to get rid of these flying and crawling insects.

How does RoboCan® 2 work?

The RoboCan® insect repellent sprays 100% natural pyrethrins into the home. Simply fit an Innovair RoboCan® refill can of insect repellent into the automatic dispenser for precise automatic dispensing 24 hours a day. (Runs on battery)

The dispenser has a variable timing switch - choose High or Low for 5 or 7 minute intervals between bursts. A puff of pyrethrin mist will be ejected into the room automatically on the timing that you set it to.

Innovair RoboCan® 2 dispenser uses advanced Micro Mist TECHNOLOGY TM which creates a mist of incredibly fine micro-particles to repel insects. The MicroMist particles rise up and spread. They stay in the air longer than ordinary sprays (which are heavier). This allows the MicroMist to be more easily spread throughout your home and leaves no residual insecticide. Therefore it is more effective then ordinary insect sprays that simply fall to the ground.

What are pyrethrins?

Natural pyrethrins are extracted from chrysanthemum daisies. Even small amounts are enough to kill most common insects. Pyrethrins break down rapidly when exposed to light, leaving no residual insecticide.

How much will I need?

One Innovair RoboCan® 2 system will serve the average 150 square metre home. Just choose a central location where air is likely to circulate and preferably close to an area where insects are most prevalent. For larger indoor areas and multi-storey homes, additional dispensers and cans may be required.

The Innovair RoboCan® 2 Automatic Insect Control System with 100% natural pyrethrins is designed for use in homes, offices, schools, shops restaurants and other indoor areas.

RoboCan® 2 eliminates the following insects:


• Ants
• Cockroaches
• Fleas
• Flies
• Mosquitoes
• Wasps
• Dust Mites

RoboCan® 2 for Outdoors:

There is also a RoboCan TM automatic insect control system for caravan, camping and boating. It is specifically designed for use during outdoor leisure activities such as camping, barbecuing and sitting around the patio. This provides on-going insect protection for an outdoor area of approximately 50 square metres.

Precaution - Don't use RoboCan near fish tanks. It is toxic to aquatic organisms.

by R'laine 13th April 2009 Can anyone here recommend 100% an automatic insect control system. I had an Expra which worked fine, UNTIL the company decided to make the cans too big for the dispensers!!! I now have a Raid system which, to be honest, is rubbish. You need a science degree just to get the thing to work, then it stops working after a few days anyway, mine is sitting there gathering dust and NOT spraying at all. So, anyone have a product they are 100% happy with?
