Excellent High-efficiency Mosquito Traps. The CO2 Mosquito Trap has proven highly efficient in capturing mosquitoes as anticipated by theory. School staff have noted a significant reduction in mosquitoes since the trap has been operational. Principles of Mozzie Defender | mosquito Killing The mosquito-killing lamp lures mosquitoes by emitting crucial substances that mimic (1) carbon dioxide emitted through human respiration and body moisture, (2) body odors, and (3) the colour contrast (specific spectrum) emitted by the body surface. As mosquitoes approach the device, the powerful suction of the integrated fan generates a 360-degree funnel vortex, drawing the mosquitoes into the built-in mosquito storage bag. Subsequently, the mosquitoes undergo air drying until they perish due to dehydration. Step 1.Carbon dioxide signals their presence from a distance. Step 2.As they approach, they detect the scent and mistake it for human presence. Step 3.Drawing nearer, the suction fan pulls them into the trap, where they are dehydrated.
