Mosquito trap (Dengue prevention)


It's just a mix of water, brown sugar and yeast.

1. Cut a plastic bottle in half, keep both parts. Can be Coca Cola / Pepsi bottle.
2. Take the lower portion of the bottle. Dissolve the brown sugar in hot water. Let it cool down to ~70 degF. 3. Add the yeast. Carbon dioxide will form (This will attract the mosquitos)
