Is it possible to collapse or dramatically reduce the biting insect population in an area?
Yes. 90% of the mosquitoes biting you live within 100 yards of where you are. The other 10% are brought in by the wind. (Most mosquitoes do not migrate.) They cannot detect your carbon dioxide beyond 100 yards. The Mosquito Magnet usually captures in excess of 1,500 mosquitoes daily, plus thousands of no-see-ums, sand flies, and black flies. A female mosquito will produce over 300 offspring during its four-week life span. For every 1,000 females trapped, 300,000 potential offspring will be eliminated. As succeeding generations are eliminated, the population in that area will collapse. NO EGGS, NO INSECTS. This usually occurs after 6 to 8 weeks of continuous use.
