[quote=Anonymous]Many neighborhoods around MD and DC are using GAT Traps from Biogents, which are what the entomologists use. These are inexpensive traps that are passive and capture female tiger mosquitos when they go to lay eggs. They also sell another trap that catches tiger mosquitos looking for blood. There's also a trap that emits carbon dioxide and attracts the full range of mosquitos. This is a targeted approach that captures only mosquitos, although you may also catch some green bottle flies. No chemical pesticides, so it's safe for kids, pets, and the environment. You can add BTI, a naturally occurring larvicide to the water in the trap as an extra measure --e.g. Mosquito Dunks. It's also more affordable.[/quote]
