Do mosquito traps work?

Mosquito traps can be highly effective at getting rid of mosquitoes. Different traps vary in their effectiveness and the insects they target. Some are better suited to eliminating male mosquitoes that don’t bite people. The best mosquito traps specifically target females that spread the trap’s active ingredients to other females and their eggs.

How long after Mosquito Joe sets mosquito traps can I go outside?

Once we set the In2care ® mosquito traps on your property, you don't need to remain indoors. The traps pose no risk to you or your pets — they target only the egg-laying biters on your property and the surrounding area.

What is the best mosquito trap out there?

The In2care ® mosquito trap is the best on the market. It specifically targets egg-laying female mosquitoes, enticing them to spread the trap's active ingredients to other hatcheries. These traps do not use UV light, which kills hundreds of harmless insects for every biting mosquito it catches. Adult-bitings mosquitoes, larvae, and eggs die without harming beneficial insects or other wildlife.

Specialized Mosquito Trap Service

Protect yourself and your loved ones from itchy bites with the best mosquito trap on the market. In2Care^® mosquito traps are scientifically engineered breeding sites that lure egg-laying mosquitoes to their deaths.

These eco-friendly mosquito traps break the life cycle of the biters in your yard. Before dying, each targeted adult mosquito spreads the trap's secret sauce to other breeding sites and therefore reaches other adults and their eggs and larvae.

For a simple, stress-free solution to mosquito control all year long, Mosquito Joe® places your In2care® traps where they will be optimally effective. Do you long for summer barbecues without itchy bites? That’s what you get with the best mosquito traps we have ever seen (and mosquitoes are our business!).

How Our Traps Work to Control Mosquitoes

The best mosquito traps work with nature to target these biting pests without harming people, pets, or beneficial insects.

Only female mosquitoes bite people and feed on blood. So, our natural mosquito traps target those biters.

The In2care^® mosquito trap provides an inviting habitat for egg-laying females. Every mosquito who visits the traps then carries the active ingredients to every other breeding site she visits, spreading them to others. Adults, larvae, and eggs die. But before the larvae hatched in the traps die, they emit odors that attract more females to lay their eggs in the trap.

These unique and highly targeted traps provide 24/7 protection from biters while reducing the need for chemicals on your property.

These mosquito traps lure in biting, breeding mosquitoes from a wide radius, helping to cut down on the population of biters in your entire neighborhood.

You can count on our trap service to rid your property of biters, backed by the Neighborly Done Right Promise® and our Mosquito Joe Satisfaction Guarantee. We’re excited to share the many benefits of In2care® mosquito traps, which include the following:

Service: Mosquito Control

For 8 years we have been battling the mosquito. We have stayed in many beautiful evenings because of the pests. For the first time this year, after one application by Mosquito Joe, we have enjoyed every night this summer sitting on our deck. What a great service!

It actually works!! I was skeptical at first. The mosquitoes are so bad here, but not since we've had this service. My neighbors also signed up because they noticed that we had no mosquitoes.
