Frequently Asked Questions
Given that mosquitoes are generally attracted to a wide combination of sight, smell (from 400 different compounds), and sound, researchers have yet to find the most ideal target of mosquitoes. They have managed to identify certain body chemistries that are determining factors of our susceptibility to mosquito bites.
Carbon dioxide, produced naturally as we breathe, acts as a long range guiding system for mosquitoes. Mosquitoes can smell and follow carbon dioxide trails from a distance of up to 50 meters. The more carbon dioxide a person emits, the more favorable he/she is to mosquitoes. This means that mosquitoes will prefer larger people over smaller people as they tend to give off more carbon dioxide. Pregnant woman are also favorable targets of mosquitoes as they produce greater amounts of carbon dioxide.
Heat, produced due to exothermic reactions in our muscles as they break down sugars for energy, acts as a guiding system for where mosquitoes can bite you. As our body generates heat, heat must be released which falls on the responsibility of our circulatory system (ie. our veins and arteries). This means that in order for us to release heat, blood must run closer to our skin. Mosquitoes have adapted themselves to identify these heat sources as potential blood rich areas and will seek out heat sources. A particularly over heated person means that more blood is closer to the skin, making them even more attractive to mosquitoes.
Certain mosquitoes are visual hunters meaning mosquitoes are attracted to dark, moving objects as they often stand out against the horizon. To avoid being a target, wear lighter colours.
Various naturally occurring chemicals produced by our bodies, such as lactic acid, octenol, and estrogen, also attract mosquitoes, although in exact levels of attractant. The exact composition and concentration is still being studied.
ULV fogging, short for Ultra Low Volume Fogging, is the aerial application of insecticides through the use of a ULV fogger. These foggers use a specially designed nozzle that compresses the insecticides before blowing them out, resulting in a fine mist that will drift around before settling down. Unlike thermal foggers, ULV foggers do not use a heater or produce exhaust gasses, making them safe and usable.
Our traps uses attractants that are produced naturally by our bodies. Octenol is contained in human breath and sweat and is produced by many plants and mushrooms. Lactic acid is produced by our muscles and is often used in skin care and food. The amount of attractants that will be exposed to the air is meant to mimic what our bodies emit.
Permethrin, which is the active ingredient used in the mosquito ULV Fogging system, is commonly found in many insecticide as well as other household products such as pet shampoos. It is known to have low toxicity towards humans and are the least poisonous insecticides to mammals. Permethrin is the synthetic version of pyrethrin, which is naturally extracted from chrysanthemum. The main difference is that Permethrin lasts longer in sunlight, making it ideal for places with a high presence of mosquitoes. While these chemicals are regarded as no risk of concern, we do not advise people to purposely come into direct contact with the mists.
If you wish to protect an apartment unit, office unit, warehouse/workshop unit:
Only mosquito traps can be used and is recommended to be used in conjunction with other mosquito control measures to follow an Integrated Pest Control (IPC) approach. If the infestation is bad, you may want to find out more from your building management or council what measures are being taking to control the mosquito population. Mosquito Management System also offers DIY and automated misting systems to protect entire compounds (see below) should the management or council wishes to do more.
If you wish to protect an entire building or compound (including corner terraces, semi-detached houses, detached houses, cluster houses, townhouses, condominiums, factories compounds):a
Automated misting systems are more suitable as they are able to effectively take care of the premises’ exterior. Usually, with good housekeeping, you will not need further mosquito control measures indoors if you have an automated misting system set up. Of course, for the best protection, the IPC approach is highly recommended by adding mosquito traps in conjunction with misting.
