Specialized Mosquito Traps in the New Orleans, LA Area

In addition to barrier spray treatments, we also provide natural mosquito traps that are highly effective at targeting and controlling mosquitoes.

Our team of urban entomologists works closely with premier manufacturers to improve the effectiveness of existing and new mosquito control methods. Extensive research and technology have developed impressive natural mosquito traps that play an essential role in targeting egg-laying females, breaking the mosquito life cycle in your yard. We work with the In2Care® mosquito traps — the best mosquito traps we have seen. They not only help to remove itching and scratching, but they control mosquitoes that carry and transmit diseases.

What Are Mosquito Traps, and How Do They Work?

Unlike bug-zappers that use ultraviolet light to lure all flying insects to their death, the best mosquito traps are highly targeted. They are specifically engineered to attract female mosquitoes when they prepare to lay their eggs. The trap provides what appears to be an inviting habitat for egg-laying females. However, it coats the female’s legs and body with a pollen-fine poison that contaminates the water with two potent toxins. The first one is slow-acting, so it allows her to spread the toxin to many other mosquitoes and eggs before she dies. The second toxin kills larvae, but before they die, they emit odors that attract more females to lay their eggs in the trap.

Because these natural mosquito traps are so effective at targeting, attracting, and controlling these pests, they are also referred to as “mosquito magnet traps.” These traps lure in breeding mosquitoes from a wide radius, helping to cut down on the population of biters in your entire neighborhood.
