How does it work?

Mosquitoes are most active late in the evening and early mornings. As we are warm blooded creatures mosquitos are attracted to our carbon dioxide and also by body our temperature. The ultraviolet light also arttacts insects and bugs.

The Mosquito/Midge Trap attracts the mosquitos by simulating a human’s body by emitting heat and carbon dioxide then eliminating the mosquito by dehydration. 

Mosquitoes are drawn through the upper capture windows where they are sucked down by the strong pull of the central fan and into the stainless steel capture basket. Once captured the mosquitoes and bugs are unable to escape and the constant flow of air from the internal fan ensures that they dehydrate and die.
