Really? I testing it out.. i just use a empty namecard box, fill some water wf MAMA lemon detegent, place it under my office table.
See if if it works well.....Originally posted by mistyblue:Dunno how true la
Here's a tip that was given at a recent gardening forum.
Put some water in a white dinner plate and add a couple drops of Lemon Fresh (Joy) dish detergent. Set the dish on your porch, patio, picnic table, park bench, or other outdoor area. Not sure what attracts them, the lemon smell, the white plate colour, or what, BUT mosquitoes flock to it, and drop dead shortly after drinking the Lemon Fresh (Joy)/water mixture, and usually within about 10 feet of the plate.
Fren try liao say :
It works just super! It may seem trivial, but it may also help to control mosquitoes around your home, (especially in areas where the West Nile virus is reaching epidemic proportions in mosquitoes, birds, and humans). Pass this on to anyone who likes sitting out in the evening, or when they're having a cook out.
My view is that the soap in the water will break water tension and thus the mozzie will fall into the water and then cannot get out... the detergent is also strong ah, so the mozzie will die loh. I did put some bleach in the other toilet I don't use... in any stagnant pools of water... after that all the mozzie infestation die out... -
No harm trying... I guess its the female ones that look for stagnant water to lay their larve but once they land on the water... they sink!Originally posted by SwtHippy:Really?

Yesh! I wanted to paste the steps but forgot and also cannot find thread... 
the insect spray and mosquito coils I used did not stop them, just move them to another place and they come back again later ... this one seems to rid of the female mozzies once and for all...
