Product Details
This lightweight mosquito trap is battery-powered and uses carbon dioxide (CO2) in the form of dry ice or a CO2 tank and an optional light source to attract mosquitoes.
Light Traps are largely used to monitor the overall species mix and population levels within a surveillance network, as well as collect specimens for disease testing. A notable advantage to using Light Traps is their ability to capture a great variety of live mosquito species to use for disease testing along with their proven efficacy in the field.
