Attract Disease-Carrying Mosquito Species

The Biogents mosquito attractant was developed through extensive laboratory and field testing. Biogents unique and patented mosquito attractant targets host-seeking female mosquitoes. Using attractants is a good way to lure a larger number of mosquitoes. You can increase the catch rate of your mosquito trap. Specifically, BG-Sweetscent attracts Asian tiger mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus) and yellow fever mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti).

What attracts mosquitoes to humans?

Mosquitoes are most attracted to the carbon dioxide humans exhale. The body heat, perspiration, and skin odor humans emit are also triggers for mosquitoes. This is why Biogents also developed an artificial human odor as an irresistible mosquito attractant called BG-Sweetscent. Using the BG-Sweetscent further increases the catch rates of your mosquito trap. When using the CO2 version of the BG-Mosquitaire trap, CO2 has to be additionally added through a gas bottle. The gas bottles are not included in the contents. These can be acquired or rented at drink retailers or bottle depots for a deposit. A door-to-door delivery service may also be possible in some locations.

Convincing Odors

The artificial human skin scent BG-Sweetscent is unique and patented. It mimics human skin odor and thus enhances the attractiveness of mosquito traps. The patented Biogents formulation is the result of 16 years of meticulous academic research of mosquito behavior. Mosquitoes are attracted to certain scents that humans emit. Firstly, the carbon dioxide of human breath leads mosquitoes to the human hosts. Secondly, certain components of the scents that human skin emits, including lactic acid, are particularly attractive to Asian tiger mosquitoes and yellow fever mosquitoes. As such, Biogents developed a mosquito attractant that mimics these human skin scents. BG-Sweetscent is a lactic acid-based formula with other food grade quality components and can be used inside your mosquito trap to increase catch rates for Asian tiger mosquitoes and yellow fever mosquitoes.

To additionally attract other mosquito species such as house mosquitoes or flood water mosquitoes, you can upgrade the BG-Mosquitaire mosquito trap with CO2. When using the CO2 version of the BG-Mosquitaire trap, CO2 has to be added additionally through a gas bottle.
All of the attractants used that enter the atmosphere from the trap are in amounts similar to those emanated from a human at rest. The continuous use of the trap can decrease the mosquito population on a long-term leading to a sustainable mosquito control.
A conventional method of mosquito control such as insecticide spraying acts as poison for insects and is a quick way to get rid of mosquitoes around the yard but unfortunately it is only temporarily effective. Recent studies came to the conclusion that some mosquito species have already developed a resistance to insecticides making them ineffective. Unlike spraying insecticides, mosquitoes cannot become resistant when mosquito traps are used. The mosquito traps remain consistently efficient.
