Constructing SenSci Volcano
To construct a SenSci Volcano, remove a clear bottom from the box and identify the side with the textured square. Snap the side with the textured square into the black top. Make sure the textured square in the center of the clear bottom is inside the monitor once the bottom is snapped in (should be able to read “Made In USA” and recycling logo if looking at the bottom of the monitor once put together).

DO NOT REMOVE CONTENTS OF PACKET!
SenSci Activ Bed Bug Lure is an attractant designed to increase the probability that a bed bug monitor detects the presence of bed bugs. The mild odor from this product will dissipate shortly after opening the packet.
Directions:
Constructing SenSci ActivVolcano
Open a SenSci Activ packet by following the directions on the Activ packaging. Center an open packet on the clear bottom of a SenSci Volcano (place packet on the side with the textured square). With the Activ packet in place, snap the bottom of the Volcano into the black top of the Volcano (being sure the textured square and packet are on the inside of the monitor). Make sure the Activ package is not pinched between the bottom and top of the Volcano.
Activ Usage
Preliminary research suggests that SenSci Activ packets be replaced every 2-3 months for optimal results. For expiration information, refer to the expiration date embedded in the seal of the packet.
Volcano or ActivVolcano Placement (see figures on attachment)
Bed bugs are known to travel along seams and edges. Knowing that bed bugs use seams and edges to travel around an environment, it is reasonable to expect bed bugs to walk along baseboards until they gain access to their host on the bed or couch. Therefore, to increase the chance of detecting bed bugs with a monitor, place monitors in areas of suspected travel such as corners of the room or along baseboards near sleeping areas. Monitors should also be placed next to legs of the bed or couch to increase your odds of detecting bed bugs.
Place SenSci Volcano or ActivVolcano flat on any surface bed bugs are known or suspected to travel or hide. Possible locations include but are not limited to along the baseboard and next to bed and couch legs. Inspect the monitor periodically for the presence of bed bugs. If bed bugs are found, dispose of bugs by flushing down the toilet or disposing of them in a sealed bag in an outdoor trash can. It is recommended to replace Volcano once per year.
