    Has anyone tried this?


    HOMEMADE MOSQUITO TRAP:
    Items needed:
    1 cup of water
    1/4 cup of brown sugar
    1 gram of yeast
    1 2-liter bottle



    HOW:
    1. Cut the plastic bottle in half.
    2. Mix brown sugar with hot water. Let cool. When cold, pour in the bottom half of the bottle.
    3. Add the yeast. No need to mix. It creates carbon dioxide, which attracts mosquitoes.
    4. Place the funnel part, upside down, into the other half of the bottle, taping them together if desired.
    5. Wrap the bottle with something black, leaving the top uncovered, and place it outside in an area away from your normal gathering area. (Mosquitoes are also drawn to the color black.)


    Change the solution every 2 weeks for continuous control.

      I’ve never heard of such a thing but with all the mosquitos we have here in Texas, I’m afraid this wouldn’t do the whole trick…….

              Never tried it. But thanks for posting the trick

              I am thinking of doing pest control of my home. A friend of mine suggested *(Ad link removed by Moderator Ducky)*.  Has anybody hired them before?
