Simple Homemade Mosquito Trap
Are you sick of having to use expensive spray and lotions to get rid of Mosquitoes? Many insect repellants smell terrible and can not be used by people with sensitive skin. Traditional mosquito coils that can be burnt also pollute your air with a smoky odour. Here are 5 great ways to repel Mosquitoes that won’t make you want to leave with them.
1. Simple Homemade Mosquito Trap
This homemade mosquito trap is easy to put together and it works really well. All you need to create one of these is a used soft drink bottle, brown sugar, yeast, water and scissors.
This works because the solution is able to slowly produce carbon dioxide. This entices the mosquitoes into the bottle where they become trapped.
A great idea if you want to avoid harsh chemicals.
Method:1
Things You Will Need:
1 cup of water
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1 gram of yeast
1 2-liter bottle
HOW:
1. Cut the plastic bottle in half.
2. Mix brown sugar with hot water. Let cool. When cold, pour in the bottom half of the bottle.
3. Add the yeast. No need to mix. It creates carbon dioxide, which attracts mosquitoes.
4. Place the funnel part, upside down, into the other half of the bottle, taping them together if desired.
5. Wrap the bottle with something black, leaving the top uncovered, and place it outside in an area away from your normal gathering area. (Mosquitoes are also drawn to the color black.)
Change the solution every 2 weeks for continuous control.
Method:2
Instead of masking your scent, lure mosquitoes away by making your own carbon dioxide trap with vinegar and baking soda.
1.Wash out an empty 2-liter soda bottle. Let it dry.
2.Cut the bottle in half. Set aside the top of the bottle.
3.Put 1/4 cup of baking soda into the bottom of the bottle.
4.Invert the top of the bottle so that it looks like a funnel. Place this over the bottom of the bottle. Secure it with tape.
5.Pour 1 cup of vinegar into the bottle. When it hits the baking soda, it will bubble and release carbon dioxide. This will attract mosquitoes, which will enter the funnel and get trapped in the bottom section of the bottle.
Things You Will Need:
Empty 2-liter soda bottle
Scissors
Tape
1/4 cup baking soda
1 cup vinegar
