BG-Sentinel 2

BG-Sentinel was originally developed to allow researchers around the world to monitor vectors of dengue, chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever and is now considered the gold standard for monitoring mosquitoes, especially those potentially carrying these diseases. The trap is now used by scientists, health professionals, pest control operators and private households around the world. With the addition of carbon dioxide (CO2), the BG-Sentinel is an excellent surveillance tool for mosquitoes in general.

Benefits:
-it is foldable;
-light and easy to transport;
-imitates the emanation of the human body;
-uses attractive visual cues, releases artificial skin emanations through a large surface;
-can be used without CO2 to specifically capture selected mosquito species (eg, Stegomyia spp and Culex quinquefasciatus);
-it is an excellent general trap when used with CO2;
-large enough to incorporate additional attractants (hair, worn clothing, small animals, food, light and heat sources).

Mode of action:
-The BG-Sentinel mosquito trap is, in essence, a foldable container, made of textile material, with a white lid with holes that covers its opening. In the middle of the lid the air is sucked into the trap through a black capture pipe by an electric fan, attracting mosquitoes that approach in a catch bag.
-The air then exits the trap through the white gauze, generating upward currents. They are similar to the currents produced by a human host, both in their direction, their geometric structure and due to the addition of the BG-Lure attractant in their chemical composition.

Way of usage:
-Place the trap in the places where you noticed the mosquito activity;
-The approaching mosquitoes are attracted to the trap and then captured by a fan;
-The transparent material allows you to monitor the catch and see when it's time to empty the trap.
-Numerous independent scientific studies have been conducted with BG-Sentinel worldwide and it has been proven successful in over 300 publications making it the most effective mosquito trap on the market.
