Homemade Dengue Mosquito Trap
It’s been all over the news for the past few weeks. The number of cases are increasing at an alarming rate. Every year this is one of our country’s biggest problems. DENGUE VIRUS!
The season/weather isn’t even helping. With the constant rain, stagnant water can be found all over, and those are only the visible ones, there are also the hidden stagnant waters where more and more Dengue carrying mosquitoes are propagating.
There is only so much that we could do to stop the Dengue cases from increasing. At home we’ve started burning dead leaves, and wood to produce smoke that hopefully would drive the Dengue Mosquito a.k.a. the Aedes Aegypti away. But no matter how much smoke we make, we still find those pests inside our home and in our bedrooms.

That is why with the help of research, I’ve discovered a different way of eliminating these pesky little blood suckers. I found instructions on how to make a home made mosquito trap by using stuff that we can find mostly in our kitchen such as: empty plastic bottles, sugar, hot water and yeast.
