I proudly present an Finnish innovation to catch mosquitoes and flies.

[One of local newspaper used to have handy tricks section, which almost always included pantyhose. That has produced wide range of funny innovations.]

Mosquitoes seek for carbon dioxide and body odors but are not attracted by ultraviolet light.

There might be few hits by chance though..

This might work better with mosquitoes. Bottle, which releases CO2 and traps the mosquitoes inside.

Used these in Australia to catch flies and fruit flies. Bait was a piece of rotten meat in a bit of water.
