How the Mosquito Killing System Works

The female mosquito requires a blood meal to provide protein in order for her eggs to mature. Heat and Carbon Dioxide are the two main cues that attract the mosquito to their host for this meal. In the evening, when it starts getting dark, the MKS photocell closes and activates or powers on the unit. While running, it mimics various mammals by providing a fluctuating heat source and releasing warmed carbon dioxide from the unit.


Seeking the blood meal required for her eggs, the mosquito is attracted to the unit. As the mosquito attempts to probe the skin-like texture of the MKS, they are vacuumed into the unit at the point of entry. The mosquito is then forced through the unit where they are safely electrocuted and discharged from the bottom of the unit.


1. Photocell Activates unit at
     dusk and powers off at dawn.
2. Heat Source - Mimics the body
     temperatures of humans,
     livestock, poultry, and domestic
     pets.
3. Carbon Dioxide - warmed
     CO2 is released, mimics the
     breathing of warm-blooded
     mammals. (on for 2
     minutes and off for 1.5
     minutes in 5 hours.)
4. Fan - Provides vacuum source 
     to force the mosquito through
     the unit. (On 1.5 minutes, off 2
     minutes.)
5. Mosquito point of entry
6. Electrocution Grid - Provides
     electrical charge to safely
     eliminate the mosquito.
7. Safety Guard.
