To mark the end of the northern hemisphere solar summer (August 4) we’re taking 10% off all mosquito traps (and trap combos) during August. We’ll even throw in a free Octenol lure twin pack valued at $24.95.
Mosquito reproduction hits its peak in July, August and September, and West Nile virus season is officially here! However, officials caution that mosquito borne diseases occur statewide throughout the year, and the risk of becoming infected highest from late July through to September.
It’s time to trap! In indepedent tests Mega-Catch™ mosquito traps have been shown to capture thousands of mosquitoes in a single night. And at those rates, it only takes about two months to collapse a local mosquito population, and significantly reduce the risk of West Nile or any other mosquito borne illness.
A good mosquito trap is probably the most effective solution for an open space like a back yard, and when placed strategically near known breeding sites, “they have knocked mosquito populations down,” reports AMCA technical adviser Joseph Conlon. (WebMD, July 28, 2009)
Further DIY mosquito control measures should also include wearing loose long pants and long sleeves to help deter the biters, using repellants, especially those with DEET, to cut down on the attacks and depriving mosquitoes of their favorite places like standing water, which can become potential mosquito nurseries.
