Do Biogents mosquito traps work?
Do Biogents mosquito traps work?
We conclude that BG-Sweetscent increases the tiger mosquito catch rates of many commercially available mosquito traps. We proved that the BG-Mosquitaire is as efficient as the well-known BG-Sentinel and that it can outperform mosquito traps that are baited with propane-generated CO2.
Do in2care mosquito traps work?
The water in the trap will contain enough PPF to kill mosquitoes even when rain dilutes the content: results show it to still be effective even at 2000-fold lower concentrations. We also recommend placing the traps in shaded, vegetated areas, where mosquitoes like to breed and no heavy rain input is expected.
What is a CO2 mosquito trap?
Different from a bug zapper, a carbon dioxide mosquito trap is a device that you can place in your yard that claims to help control, reduce, or eliminate your mosquito population. The way these traps work is they mimic human or animal breath by emitting carbon dioxide gas.

The Biogents BG-Sentinel is a “gold standard” mosquito monitoring trap for scientists, healthcare professionals and mosquito control specialists. With the addition of an attractant such as carbon dioxide (CO2), the trap can also be used to catch other mosquito species and blood-sucking insects.
How effective is In2Care?
Recently, a commercialised AD device, the In2Care® mosquito trap (In2Care® BV, Wageningen, Netherlands) [26], has been validated in field studies in the Grand Cayman, yielding pupal mortality rates of ~ 60% (unpublished data). The In2Care® trap attracts ovipositing Ae.
What is the In2Care mosquito trap?
The In2Care Mosquito Trap lures and contaminates Aedes mosquitoes with a special slow-killing larvicide and let them spread this to other breeding sites (which are often hard to find and treat) so that mosquito larvae are not only killed inside the trap but also in its vicinity.

Why do we love this photo of a 627 mosquito?
We love this photograph of a 627 Squadron Mosquito because it shows an aircraft which has clearly had its fair share of battering, and because all the details of the machine and its attendant humans are so clear. Sid Parlato was from Upper Hutt, near Wellington, New Zealand. He flew 54 operations on his Mosquito tour.
How many operations did Sid Parlato fly in the Mosquito?
He flew 54 operations on his Mosquito tour. These were with 139 Squadron (a flight of which went on to become the basis for the formation of 627 squadron) and then with 627 Squadron, between 13 November 1943 and 6 October 1944. On our page about Sid Parlato, we gave brief details of the training accident in which he was killed.
