Placement of traps can diminish the local mosquito population when:

• Correctly positioned
• Continuously operated (24 hours a day throughout the mosquito season)
• Operation begins early in the season

Areas that can be protected by traps include:

• Backyards and gardens
• Outdoor cafes and restaurants
• Hotel/Motel outdoor areas
• Campgrounds
• Public Parks
• Outdoor sports and recreation areas
• Anywhere groups of people gather

Female Asian tiger and yellow fever mosquitoes are attracted by water and oviposition cues and enter the transparent chamber through the black funnel. Once in the chamber, mosquitoes try to escape through the translucent windows where they are captured when they contact the surface of the sticky card. The mesh provides a barrier between mosquitoes and the infused water in the lower chamber. The sticky card in the transparent chamber will kill the mosquitoes.



A humid, shady, and wind-protected location is very attractive to mosquitoes. Also, the black color of the BG-GAT attracts mosquitoes from some distance. Thus, the trap needs to be placed at a shady, humid place where it is readily visible, but protected from wind and direct rain.
