I read there were genetically modified mosquitoes that only bred males. Is that commercially available? What about that laser that zapped roaches, has it been improved to zap mosquitoes too? Maybe there is a guide somewhere on how to build a DIY Anti Mosquitoes Air Defense System?

    there’s a machine which takes a 20lb propane cyl, & attracts 'em by flashing-lights & CO2, & it captures only mosquitos, unlike bug-zappers, and it can harvest a stunning amount of the things.

    You need to replace the hormone attractant … capsule, or whatever it should be called, monthly ( that is where they get their recurring-money from, and it does make a big difference ).

    Be selective in your culling of the local insect-population, as the entire ecology around you gets altered by the action, eh?

      Pours CO2 into the atmosphere for his own comfort

      Doesn’t see the irony of lecturing people about harming their immediate ecology
