BIOGENTS BG-Booster • CO2 Upgrade for The BG-Mosquitaire Outdoor Mosquito Trap • Upgrade Your BG-Mosquitaire to Target All Biting Mosquitoes

The BG-Mosquitaire CO2 is effective against a wide variety of mosquito species because CO2 is the most important attractant for the majority of blood-sucking insects including mosquitoes. Almost all mosquitoes (e.g., house mosquitoes,flood water mosquitoes, which also occur in masses, or tiger mosquitoes) are attracted by Biogents BG-Mosquitaire CO2 trap.

Here some examples of mosquitoes sorted by their habitats:

Floodwater species develop in early spring in woodland snowmelt pools and during the summer in woodland and open field rainwater pools or drainage ditches that hold water for a few weeks to months. When the circumstances are appropriate, for example, when rainfall pushes the ground water upwards and lets nutrient-rich puddles, small ponds and flooded meadows and fields in the spring and summer, larvae can hatch in masses almost simultaneously.

House mosquitoes are common in urban and suburban communities as well as in rural areas. They breed in storm sewer catch basins, ground pools, ditches, animal waste lagoons, rain barrels, and other sites that are high in organic content. Larvae can also be found in man-made containers such as discarded tires, buckets, bird baths, wading pools, and rainwater storage containers. Female Culex mosquitoes typically lay their eggs in what is called an “egg raft”, which floats on the surface of stagnant water.

The tiger mosquitoes are primarily active during the day, including dawn and dusk. In many communities, it has become the major pest mosquito and, due to its unusually aggressive biting, has taken the joy out of spending time in the yard and garden. Adult tiger mosquitoes tend to rest near the ground in vegetation and readily bite if disturbed. They tend to have a short flight range and remain within a few hundred meters of their larval habitats. Tiger mosquitoes developed a great adaptability in colonizing new habitats in urban and suburban areas. Females utilize flower pots, bird baths, soda cans, buckets, plant saucers, plastic drainpipe extensions and many other human-made water holding containers as sites to deposit eggs.
