How Good is Mosquito Trap?
WouterChoosing the right mosquito trap is a crucial part of maintaining a mosquito-free home. The best traps have a wide range of settings, so you can set it up to work with a variety of insects. These devices also offer the advantage of being silent, so they are safe for kids and pets.
Indoor traps use light or heat to attract insects. These systems are ideal for small indoor spaces, but they will not be as effective in open areas.
Heat systems are commonly used with propane or CO2 solutions. This type of trap works by generating heat, so it’s important to place it in an area where the temperature is similar to the human body.
Vacuum traps, on the other hand, use a silent vacuum to attract and hold insects. These types of traps are safe for children and pets, but they don’t kill bugs.
The best mosquito traps can be placed up to a half-acre radius. They will also work if they are installed close to the source of mosquitoes, such as stagnant water. This will reduce the population of mosquitoes in your area, and will ensure a safe outdoor space.
The DynaTrap Mosquito Trap uses a small fan to draw approaching bugs into the trap. It then holds them in a screened base where they die, and it emits a small amount of C02.
The Ultra Trap is another popular model, and is CO2 ready. However, you can buy an aftermarket CO2 upgrade kit to get the most out of your trap.
