HOW TO MAKE A HOMEMADE MOSQUITO TRAP


We all enjoy sitting outdoors on relatively hot nights in bid to catch some cool breeze. However, one of the biggest nuisance in such a time are mosquitos that swarm our homes in hundreds. Using anti-bug vaporisers or mosquito zappers is not a practical solution considering every room needs one. However, there is a very easy mosquito trap  that you can make at home with household items.


Here’s what you need.

1. A used 1.5 or 2 Ltr Coke/Water Bottle.
 2. Brown Sugar
 3. Yeast
 4. Water
 5. Scissors




The process is illustrated below:




Wondering how this actually works? Well, mosquitos are attracted towards sources that generate carbon dioxide such as humans and animals. The above-mentioned solution of sugar and yeast will produce carbon dioxide at slow rate and the mosquitos will be drawn towards the bottle opening, ending up in water.

So give it a shot and let us know in comments about how it worked for you.
