3. 3. Let the mixture cool, then add 1 g dry baker's yeast (do not stir).
4. 4. Invert the top of the bottle and fit it into the bottom like a funnel.
5. 5. Wrap the trap with newspaper.
6. 6. Place in a dark, humid spot where mosquitoes rest.

How It Works

Your trap is ready! Mosquitoes are drawn to the carbon dioxide produced by the fermenting yeast-sugar mix and can't escape the funnel.

Simple, fast, and backed by practical experience—this is expert-level DIY pest control.
