● produces an artificial odor that mimics scents found on human skin
● targets biting, female mosquitoes
● can increase traps` catch rates for Asian tiger mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus) and yellow fever mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti) dramatically

Mosquitoes are attracted to the carbon dioxide humans exhale. The body heat, perspiration, and skin odor humans emit are also important triggers for mosquitoes. This is why Biogents developed an artificial human odor as an irresistible mosquito attractant called BG-Sweetscent. This artificial human skin scent is unique and patented. It is the first and only mosquito attractant registered in Europe!
Using attractants is a good way to lure a larger number of mosquitoes. You can increase the catch rate of your mosquito trap with the BG-Sweetscent. This specially-developed lactic acid-based formula especially attracts tiger mosquitoes and yellow fever mosquitoes.
To additionally attract other mosquito species such as house mosquitoes or flood water mosquitoes, you can upgrade the BG-Mosquitaire mosquito trap with CO2. When using the CO2 version of the BG-Mosquitaire trap, CO2 has to be added additionally through a gas bottle.
All of the attractants used that enter the atmosphere from the trap are in amounts similar to those emanated from a human at rest. The continuous use of the trap can decrease the mosquito population in the long-term leading to sustainable mosquito control.
A conventional method of mosquito control such as insecticide spraying acts as poison for insects and is a quick way to get rid of mosquitoes around the garden but unfortunately it is only temporarily effective. Recent studies came to the conclusion that some mosquito species have already developed a resistance to insecticides making them ineffective. Unlike spraying insecticides, mosquitoes cannot become resistant when mosquito traps are used. The mosquito traps remain consistently effective.
