Choosing your Mosquito Trap Systems

Why a mosquito trap system ?

Different mosquito traps target different phases of the life cycle. One single trap can catch mosquitoes, but you need a long-term system to protect your space effectively.

The Blood Meal

After mating, female mosquitoes need a blood meal before they can lay their eggs. They bite humans, but also birds and deer which can carry deadly vector-borne diseases.

Catch them BEFORE they bite

The BG-Mosquitaire trap is engineered to be both smelled and seen by biting mosquitoes seeking that blood meal (you). BG-Sweetscent and CO2 are recommended attractants.

The Breeding Site

After a bite and a blood meal, mosquitoes lay 50-100 eggs in standing water sources. Any mosquitoes that were infected by a disease from their last meal fly off to bite again and potentially transmit that disease.

Catch them BEFORE they lay eggs

Our BG-GAT attracts female tiger mosquitoes looking for standing water to lay eggs on AFTER they have bitten. The trapped adult mosquitoes get stuck on a sticky card and die.

Choosing which traps you need

Types of mosquitoes

All of our traps are engineered to catch Tiger mosquitoes. They are unusually aggressive, bite during the day, and attracted to our BG-Sweetscent. We highly recommend adding CO2 if you have house or floodwater mosquitoes.

Size of your space

The range of a single trap is about 360 sq yds or 33 ft diameter. Using CO2 can increase your coverage to about 840 sq yds. For a typical patio or outdoor space, we recommend starting with two BG-Mosquitaire traps on either side and 15 ft away from people. Add two or more BG-GAT traps within your space.

Environment & conditions

Sun, shade, wind, standing water, trees, and even wide roads can impact mosquito activity. You may need to test different trap placements for a week at a time to find the best catch rates. Try a Google satellite image of your space to help you make a plan.
