Biogents Mosquitaire Outdoor Mosquito Trap with CO₂ Booster & Sweetscent Lure | Eco-Friendly, Pesticide-Free, Pet-Safe Repellent Alternative | Electric Catcher for Comprehensive Mosquito Control

Don't buy this unless you are in the Americas. They have supplied an American standard CO2 thread to a region which uses British/European standard CO2 thread. EU is 0.86in 14TPI, US is 0.83in 14TPI. So does not fit. FYI Japan also has a different CO2 thread. DUBAI.

Update-8/1/2024: The CO2 tank finally exhausted on this, and I upgraded to a 20 pound tank. I still stand by my original review that this thing is amazing. However, saw it for a few days without the CO2 tank and, while it still works with only scent packets and catches mosquitoes, after I refilled the CO2 tank and reattached, it is crawling with mosquitoes. Totally worth the purchase. Original Review: I've tried everything in my backyard. Mosquito coils, foggers, and even buying targeted insecticides that are supposed to limit mosquito egg development. However, at the end of the day, unless I made sure that I was covered head to toe in high intensity mosquito repellent every time I walked in back, I would get destroyed by mosquitoes. Putting repellent on is fine, but if I would go outside and want to weed for 20 minutes and forget to Put on repellent , I would come back inside and be itchy. I've been looking at this thing for a year and the cost Had really put me off purchasing it. After another crazy spring here in New York, I decided just to bite the bullet and try this though. I'm totally blown away. When I first bought it, I only had the scent packet in it because I needed to wait to find a place where I could source CO2. Even with the scent packet, it caught a good deal of mosquitoes though. However, once I got CO2 attached to this and placed it properly, I haven't had a single bite in the week that I've had this installed. I pull out the bag every day to see how it's doing and the bottom third of it is just filled with mosquito corpses now. We have tiger mosquitoes and the other normal brown looking mosquitoes and I see both of them in here dead. Tips: 1) Place it properly. I have an extension cord running from an exterior outlet and I run this into a corner of my yard where it's hidden behind some foliage in a spot that's shady. 2) Just commit to buying the timer for it so that it's only pumping out CO2 at the most opportune times to target mosquito activity. That's pretty important to cut down on how many times you need to get the tank refilled. 3) just buy a 20 pound tank and figure out a way to have it be easily refilled. I think what I'm going to do is just have a delivery service that comes and picks up the tank every two months when it runs dry and give me a refilled one since I don't have a car and getting into a welding shop to have it refilled would be kind of a pain. Where I live in New York, the mosquito season is about four months. So using the regulator where you time it to come on only at very specific times when the mosquitoes are at their worst, I calculated that I'll spend about $160 a year to have the CO2 replaced. In the grand scheme of things when you think about having to constantly buy repellent, it seems like a worthwhile fixed cost. However, yes, if you live in an area where mosquito season is pretty much all the time, that might not work for everyone financially. For my situation though it's perfect. Yes. You'll need to commit to spending about 400 bucks for the machine itself, the CO2 regulator and your first filled 20 pound tank. However, if you can stomach that initial cost, I don't know of any better system that exists on the planet to keep your Backyard mosquito free . Some people have talked about taking out the bag of mosquitoes and putting it in the freezer to kill them periodically. I guess you could do this, but I don't really see the point. Once they get in here, they're completely trapped due to how the bag is designed (a cone arrangement that mosquitoes can't find their way out of once they're in) and if a mosquitoes trapped in here for two days, it dies on its own due to dehydration. I think it's likely big enough to just leave the bag in here all season and just empty out all the corpses at the end. Less maintenance too. Another thing. Zappers aren't a great technology to get rid of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes aren't attracted to light and bugs zappers kill a lot of other insects that I'm not interested in killing. This thing is super targeted, the only bugs that are trapped in here are mosquitoes. Buy this. You won't regret it. Completely sustainable and you don't have to use poison on your body and your yard to try and attempt to keep mosquitoes off of you. I'm not quite sure what the other reviews are talking about. If you follow the directions and run this thing the way it's supposed to run, you'll be able to live in normal life in your backyard again!

We live in West Central Illinois. It's been a wet spring that went dry for an extended period of time. Once it got nice out we wanted to enjoy our backyard but were overrun with mosquitos and gnats. We decided to give this a try, despite the high initial investment cost. I do own a micro brewery, so we have lots of spare CO2 tanks sitting around. So admittedly, this helped push us in this direction. I setup the unit under a tree on the West end of the property, about 30 ft away from our house. Breezes and storms do come from that direction, so I thought that might be an issue but it wasn't. After 10 days of continuous running, it's caught a LOT of mosquitos and gnats. We sat out on the patio two nights ago and not one bite. Also, during the day when gnats like to swarm you, they're virtually gone as well. They must be attracted to the scent packet that goes inside. If someone reviews this and hasn't had luck, I can only assume it was opperator error on placement, not giving it long enough time to run, or they didn't setup of the CO2 properly. Keep in mind this thing sucks in the females who are trying to reproduce, they're the blood suckers. After a while, the mosquito popullation will drop off if you give it some time to do it's job.

I tried a few different things & this turned out to be the total solution. First I tried the propane tank mosquito magnets at $600. Because propane tanks are so easy to get anywhere. However the propane method caught very few mosquitos. My highly uneducated guess would be mosquitos really don't care for burnt propane CO2 over pure CO2. The Biogents Mosquitaire CO2 Mosquito Trap is amazing. In full disclosure I eventually purchased 3 of these units, after proving the first one worked so well. Why not 3X the killing power?! No fun having a nice heated saltwater pool & having mosquitos buzzing around you & your guests at night. I'm in South Florida, humid summer time year round basically. I highly suggest getting the CO2 version / attachment. It works some without it & the scent baits (which are expensive) but nothing compares to the CO2 version. I ran it for a month without the CO2 until I got around to buying one tank & seeing how much of a difference it really made. The answer... Mosquitos are highly attracted to this CO2 settup & not to my guests & I. I purchsed a "TMCRAFT 20lb CO2 Tank" on Amazon for $185. It costs me about $75 to fill it with CO2 at a local beer keg store. So far I'm past a month on on my first fill & still going strong. It's catching so good on the CO2 I don't think I need the $19 a month baits. So theoretically I'm putting that money towards the CO2 Fill cost. If you don't get the CO2 you should buy the baits (which smell like dirty socks) To make my tanks last a lot longer, I turn on the CO2 at dusk & then turn off in the morning. Mosquitos are far less active in the hot day time. Rainy overcast days I leave it on... They sell a CO2 timer for like $200 but I had to draw the line somewhere. I have a friend that gets bitten by mosquitoes instantly going outside no matter what. No one else in the group gets bit but her. It's truly laughable... Since I've installed this system she hasn't gotten bitten once which is a full blown miracle. Last note the location of where I have mine placed varies your catch rate so you may want to move it around & find the best kill spot in your yard. Also I never turn the power off so they are always vacuumed in. On occasion if you want to clean the bags easiest thing to do without releasing live ones by mistake. Close the flap against the vaccum running. Pull out the full catch assembly from the base & put the whole thing quickly into a plastic grocery store bag. Tie a knot & put the whole thing in the freezer for 3 hours. Then take out, dump all the dead mosquitoes into the plastic bag you were using. Tie that off put in garbage then put your catcher assembly back in base. I never write reviews but had to on this product & after wasting $600 trying the propane mosquito magnet fail. This is close to $600 after the CO2 tank purchase & fill but absolutely worth it!

I live in Atlanta and I’ll lose a liter of blood every time I go get the mail. As soon as I walk out of my front door I’m covered. I basically can’t go outside for four to five months. This trap literally cleared my front yard in about 3 days. I caught hundreds of mosquitoes. For the first time I was able to work in my garden without looking like a pin cushion. However, this thing is wickedly expensive, especially for what it costs to produce (maybe $30 in materials). It’s effectively useless without a tank of co2 attached which costs ~$200 up front for the tank and the gas plus ~$35 every three weeks or so. I bought the co2 timer for $90 which should pay for itself by the end of the season in co2 costs. So, my expenses for this first season will be about $800 and then about $240 for every season afterwards. But, that is about 1/3 of the cost of those companies that will spray your yard and kill the bees/butterflies. Having tried just about everything on the market, this is one of the only ones I've found that works.

LOVE this trap. We live in Florida and the past couple of years have been awful! Even with the dunks, thermacell, and yard maintenance; it hasn't been enough. We tried other traps and they also caught beneficial insects. This works fast and is worth every cent. We went to a local home brewing store and got the CO2 tank and it's really is a huge difference.... Very easy to set up as well. It's super easy to empty the mosquitos out (and there were only mosquitos in the trap). This thing a life changing. I was initially nervous about the price but now I'm thinking about a second unit!
