They are more active early in the morning and evenings when its cooler. They usually go on "searching" flights in the evening and night for blood sources. That is where dark shade comes into play. To the person with the skeet-r-done product that probably works for the company: It won't work. Use a product with DEET it is the most effective and it won't hurt you. The other products that have "natural" items like citronella in them aren't effective more than 10-15 mins. mosquitoes hide in the shade during the day when its hot.

It is the best thing I have ever tried. I have been using this for over a year now and as long as I use it I have never gotten a mosquito bite. Their web site is www.skeet-r-done.net If you have a mosquito issue you must give it a try! The best soulution I have found for mosquitos is a product called Skeet-r-done.

After Tropical Storm Faye we now have millions of the darn things hiding in the corners. I'm horrified and will be trying lots of different things....this homemade trap will be one of them. I hope it works. Mosquitos at my house are all found in the darker corners where two walls meet, so at least in Florida the mosquitos do like to hide around the corners.

Only thing is different is the occasional word and "mosquitos like dark corners", which is complete bullshit. Also, I made this and it didn't work. At all. There is about 50+ mosquitos buzzing around my porch, with the trap right in the middle. They are all ignoring it.

Mosquitos don't care whether they're flying around a corner or not. Anyway, I made this and caught a fly and two ants. Mosquitos ignored it -- just like people should.
