Propane is a dirty gas and over time it will plug the burner orifice with a tar which in the presence of heat does not flush out with the "Quick Clear Maintenance Cartridge". I feel these cartridges are a waste of money. You must disassemble the (MM) to remove the burner nozzle and soak the parts in lacquer thinner for 30 minutes. You must remove the cover screws, unscrew the base of the (MM) and lift up enough to remove the fuel valve, unscrew the fuel valve hose anurlhasbeenblockedve the burner nozzle. Disassemble the fuel nozzle and soak in lacquer thinner. It took me 1 hour but the next time it will be only 30 minutes since I will know how to do it.


eh seems like more overhead

good price tho

Same issue on the need to clean burner nozzles on other 'appliances' aside from this item from OP?

If you have a mosquito control district where you live, it might be worth asking if they have a trapping program (sometimes called a sentinel program) in your area. Where I used to live, they would come out and setup traps on your property (if you volunteered to participate) and then pick up the collection bags in the morning and reset the traps for the day. Free to participate and it helped them track the area mosquito species and track any diseases they might be carrying. Yes, you have to allow them access to your property, but they came so early in the morning we never ran into them.

Their traps are fairly simple, but this is what they settled on after years ot trying different traps and methods for mosquito collection: https://www.mosquitocontrol.org/co2-traps

Seems like you could build one for $25, but it would take a supply of dry ice and batteries/solar to run the fan all day. Still, nothing to clean, nothing to burn, and you help out your area pest/disease tracking.
