    Default Re: Controlling Mosquitos

    Just following up on the Mosquito Magnet thing I mentioned above. I sent my unit off to be serviced, and $180 later it came back working perfectly. It's only been running for 3 days now in my yard and already has what must be well over 20 mosquitoes in the trap chamber. I'm thinking this thing is going to work out well - just don't buy a used one unless you're sure it's in good working order. For what I paid for the device + repair I could have saved money buying it new.

    The EPA page linked above by pooldoc provides a reference to the "American Mosquito Control Association" which has a page talking about these devices here.
