Biogents’ Mosquitaire CO2 trap
Biogents’ Mosquitaire CO2 (BG-Mosquitaire CO2) trap is an excellent tool to control all mosquito species and other blood feeding insects. The sturdy plastic trap is designed to be placed in your garden and has been tried and tested worldwide.
Place the mosquito trap close to the mosquito resting areas and breeding places. In this way the mosquito trap will catch the mosquitoes before they reach the patio and annoy you.
Patented technology
The mosquito trap uses the same patented capture technology of all Biogents traps with the additional use of pure carbon dioxide (CO2) which is an attractive key element of human respiration and the most important attractant for blood-feeding insects. CO2 widens the spectrum of the collected species and their catch rates (including the tiger mosquitoes). Read more about why to upgrade the trap with CO2 >
To the mosquito, the trap looks just like a human being.
If the traps are correctly positioned and run continuously throughout the season, they can effectively decrease the mosquito population, and you can enjoy your patio again.
“I would recommend the BG – Mosquitaire CO2 trap because it works and is relatively inexpensive and safer to operate and is used by local governments across the U.S.A. and the world. I do believe in Biogents products and wish you continued success in the U.S.A.”— Tom Rodney, Greenville, North Carolina (bought BG-GATs and the BG-Mosquitaire with CO2)
The placement of the mosquito trap is an important factor to ensure high catch rates. Therefore, it is best to test different locations!
📍 Application
- outdoors
- placement in shady, wind-protected moist places, near breeding sites of mosquitoes
📈 Effect
- continuously operate the trap (24 hours for a number of weeks)
- applicate the trap early in the season
If the traps are correctly positioned and run continuously throughout the season, they can decrease the mosquito population, and you can enjoy your patio again.

Carbon dioxide (CO2)
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the most important attractant for blood-feeding insects and necessary to attract a wide range of mosquito species.
For the BG-Mosquitaire Biogents suggests carbon dioxide from 10 kg bottles which are also used in pubs and restaurants as a CO2 source. Such a bottle lasts for three to seven weeks, depending on the flow rate used. Under most circumstances, we recommend a flow rate of 0.5 kg per day. The flow rates correspond to the rate that is released by a small child.
Carbon dioxide bottles are available at gas stores and gastronomy suppliers.
Placement of traps diminishes the local mosquito population when correctly positioned, continuously operated (24 hours a day throughout the mosquito season), and operation begins early in the season.
Examples of areas that can be protected by traps
- backyards and gardens
- outdoor cafés and restaurants
- hotel outdoor areas
- campgrounds
- facilities for outdoor sports and recreation

The BG-CO2 timer
To reduce your CO2 costs the new BG-CO2 timer allows you to control when CO2 is released by establishing specific start and stop times. It enables you to set up two start and end times to release CO2 each day.

Recommendation: BG-Home
Of course mosquitoes are not only found outdoors but they also enter the house. In this case, the BG-Home indoor trap can help: It captures tiger mosquitoes and other flying pest insects indoors.
If you are mainly bothered by pests other than tiger mosquitoes, e.g., house or floodwater mosquitoes, we recommend to use the BG-Mosquitaire trap in combination with CO2 and the BG-Booster CO2 outdoors.
