| Reclaim your backyard with this hardcore mosquito trap. The Mosquito Mega-Catch ($200) uses a strip of octenol (resembles the scent of breath), a UV bulb, and flashing LEDs to attract the blood-sucking pests, and when they get close an airflow system sucks them inside, where they're collected in a mesh bag or liquid catch pan. An integrated LCD and timer lets you program the machine so the trap operates around the clock or only during the evenings. And with results like these, you know the Mega-Catch is a badass: "In a USDA suburban test, our trap captured up to 1,200 mosquitoes in a single night and diminished mosquito populations over an entire acre." Take that, bitches. |
