Whats The Best Indoor Mosquitoe Trap


SkyNets

Recommended Posts

I'm looking for the best type of trap for mosquitoes (indoors). The ones at HomePro look good but rely on UV lights to attract them, which I have read does not work for mosquitoes. I understand they track carbon dioxide and lactic acid, is there anything that uses chemicals to attract then zaps or traps? The electric tennis racket works well but sometimes just want to sleep and not run around.

Ok, so found a mosquito lure on Lazada, think I will try and use that inside or on top of the HomPro trap. They last 30 days or so, also just read an old socket can be used for bate lol

Have strong opinion that the fan traps are not safe - had one that looks very much like above catch fire (and it was open flames with heavy smoke) - lucky it was daytime and room occupied so put out before anything else went up in flames but unit itself totally burnt up - removed several others from service and will never use again.  Am sure the fan overheated making the plastic burn.  They did work fairly well without the death noise of zappers but running 24 hours a day with the cheap motors in them seems to be asking for trouble.

 

Just use the bats now - if one in room turn off all lights but one above mirror and wait - normally they go to the light within 3 minutes and you get a good view using mirror.
