we got one for my mothers house (uphill from a swamp) where it is impossible to be
outside during the day there are so many. the concept behind the "magnets" is one of
attrition. kill off enough females, even delay the females from finding a blood meal
long enough by confusion with the heat and CO2 and she will drop dead/wont lay eggs
that make more mosquitos.
the device is placed well away from were humans are, to draw them off
the device must be run 24/7 all summer long
it states quite clearly it takes weeks in heavily infested areas to crash the
population.
surprisingly enough, the people who said it was working did not find many skeeters in
the bags. altho I dont know how long a "body" would last being desiccated and shoved
around in a bag.
the people who were saying it didnt work were usually looking in the bag for bodies,
and had not been running it very long before they returned it.

The one thing commonly noted about this device
though is that there are never any mosquitoes on the sticky paper. I don't
know where they get all those skeeters in the commercials, but I never see
any on there.
