Mosquito traps suck insects in, mimicking human respiration

"Due to the rhythmic emission of a mixture of CO₂ and various acidsOur terminal simulates human breathing.

attracts female mosquitoes that bite to then lay 200 eggs every 48 hours.Attracted by artificial respiration, the mosquitoes are sucked into the trap like a vacuum cleaner," explains PierreBellagambi, 37-year-old Arlezien, co-founded Qista with his childhood friend Simon Lillamand.The efficiency of the terminal is 60 meters for common mosquitoes and 30  meters for tiger mosquitoes.The study showed that the number of bites during the operation of the terminal is reduced by 88%.

Such a terminal is an alternative to chemical treatment.It acts only on mosquitoes, all other insects remain unharmed in the food chain. 

With its patented models, Qista is on the verge of establishing itself in the American market.
