How does the Mosquito Killing System work?

The system creates a source of fluctuating heat and releases pure CO2 (carbon Dioxide) in the proportions that the female blood sucking mosquito is genetically programmed to find. The MKS mimics the mosquito’s prey by producing different “Body Signatures”, such as, temperature and breathing of humans, poultry, livestock and pets. The MKS cycles every six to nine minutes, ranging from 85-110 degrees, producing the different body signatures, and releases a scientifically measured plume of 750 CC of CO2 every minute to simulate breathing. Mosquitoes also have infrared vision, therefore the fluctuating heat chamber in the MKS uses the mosquitoes’ thermal imagery (Infrared Vision) to attract them to the trap. Once near the trap, the mosquito will also detect a slight air current triggering yet another instinct that movement means a meal. The system also has a textured surface to simulate skin. Mosquitoes land and are super-attracted to the unit. They will even attempt to probe the unit befo
