Re: Has home made mosquito trap worked for you?
from kitty on 06/17/2015 07:22 PMThanks for your reply Lady. I made one up and put it out late last night but the air had cooled down to 9°C with a breeze so that's not really ideal mosquito conditions - they'd likely all gone to bed. :) I'll keep monitoring the trap and keep this thread updated. I've heard many different reviews on this trap. Many said it works like a charm, others said it didn't. People said it would work if follow directions properly so I'll see. The only thing I might not have done properly is maybe put too much yeast in - I dumped the whole packet on top of the syrup and the pkg says there are 8g in it. I have no idea how many grams one tblsp is.
ReplyHas home made mosquito trap worked for you?
from kitty on 06/17/2015 02:12 AMEvery year there's a widely circulated recipe to make a home made mosquito trap that instructs you to cut a 2L plastic pop bottle down about a third of the way from the top; make a syrup of 1 C. of boiling water; 1/4 C. of brown sugar; wait until the dissolved sugar syrup mixture cools completely before adding 1 tsp of active dry yeast on top of the syrup after it's been poured into the bottom half of the bottle. You do NOT stir the yeast in, but leave it to float on top. You turn the top cut off part of the bottle upside down and place it outside somewhere out of the sun. This is supposed to collect hundreds of mosquitos according to the picture in the blog. Has anybody tried this yet, and if so, does it work????

from kitty on 06/12/2015 12:44 AMI didn't notice anything rude or against rules in the thread about smoking and e-cigs being banned. Yet this post has also been deleted. Why?
