Nothing ruins a perfect summer evening faster than a swarm of hungry mosquitoes. While citronella candles and bug sprays might offer a temporary fix, serious mosquito control calls for something more sophisticated—something that works with science, not just scent.

Enter the Biogents Mosquitaire: a powerful, eco-friendly mosquito trap designed to mimic human presence and lure mosquitoes away from you and your family. Built on decades of entomological research, the Mosquitaire offers a high-tech, non-toxic alternative to fogging and fumigation—and it’s changing the way people think about mosquito control.

What Makes the Mosquitaire So Effective?

The Biogents Mosquitaire targets host-seeking female mosquitoes, which are the ones actively looking for a blood meal. These are the mosquitoes that buzz around your head, bite your ankles, and leave itchy welts. Rather than trying to repel them, the Mosquitaire trap attracts and captures them, using the same cues they use to locate human hosts.

Here’s how it works:

  • Airflow Simulation: A quiet fan creates an upward current of air, simulating the heat and movement of a human body.
  • Visual Design: The trap’s dark color and upright shape appeal to mosquitoes’ visual preferences.
  • Scent Lures: This is where things get really smart. The Mosquitaire's effectiveness increases with SweetScent to imitate the chemical signals given off by human skin. These lures emit a blend of lactic acid, ammonia, and fatty acids—the same cues mosquitoes use to find us.

But the real game-changer? Carbon dioxide.

The Power of CO₂

Mosquitoes are highly sensitive to carbon dioxide (CO₂)—the gas we exhale when we breathe. It's one of the most powerful attractants in their sensory toolkit. When you add CO₂ to the Biogents Mosquitaire (via a compatible CO₂ source, like a gas tank or Biogents CO₂ emitter), the trap becomes exponentially more effective.

With CO₂, the Mosquitaire can attract a broader range of mosquito species, including the aggressive daytime biters like Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, which are vectors for diseases like dengue, Zika, and chikungunya.

This added attraction power helps intercept mosquitoes before they bite, providing a protective buffer around your home.

About the Sweetscent Attractant

The patented Sweetscent cartridges are designed to enhance the effectiveness of the Mosquitaire trap by mimicking the scent profile of human skin. This lure significantly boosts trap performance in areas with high mosquito activity. It is non-toxic, easy to install, and don’t pose any risk to humans, pets, or pollinators.

Chemical-Free and Eco-Conscious

One of the biggest advantages of the Mosquitaire is what it doesn’t use. There are no harmful pesticides, fogs, or sprays. Unlike traditional mosquito control methods—which often kill beneficial insects and pollute the environment—the Mosquitaire offers a targeted, chemical-free solution that’s safe for everyone in your household.

That makes it ideal for:

  • Families with young children
  • Pet owners
  • Gardeners concerned about bees and pollinators
  • Environmentally conscious homeowners

It’s also whisper-quiet, making it perfect for placing near patios, porches, and outdoor gathering spaces.

Placement and Use: Tips for Maximum Effectiveness

To get the most out of your Mosquitaire trap, proper placement is key. Here are a few pro tips:

  • Shade is your friend: Place the trap in a shady, humid area—mosquitoes prefer cooler, darker spaces during the day.
  • Avoid wind: Set it up in a relatively wind-protected area so the airflow from the trap isn’t disrupted.
  • Distance from people: Place the trap at least 20 feet away from where people gather to draw mosquitoes away from human hosts.
  • Pair it with the GAT trap: While the Mosquitaire targets biting mosquitoes, the Biogents GAT trap targets females ready to lay eggs—offering a one-two punch for population suppression.

Using multiple Mosquitaire units on larger properties or in heavily infested areas will greatly increase effectiveness. And when combined with CO₂ and a BG-Lure or SweetScent cartridge, you’re setting up a high-performance mosquito control system that works 24/7.

A Smarter Way to Fight the Bite

The Mosquitaire isn’t a gimmick or a gadget—it’s a research-backed, professional-grade mosquito trap that’s used by health departments, researchers, and homeowners around the world. Whether you're dealing with annoying bites or serious mosquito-borne disease risks, this trap offers a smarter, safer, and more sustainable solution.

With no chemicals, no mess, and no buzzkill, the Biogents Mosquitaire helps you take back your yard—one mosquito at a time.
