Catch Pests in this 3D Printed Bottle Trap
A Thingiverse Maker got real smart (and busy) and decided to design a 3D printed contraption that transforms your old soda bottles into bug traps. If a bug flies into the bottle chasing the liquid inside, it encounters a narrow slot that it is unable to escape back through. Easy enough. Although the designer "jimustanguitar" has successfully caught flies and bees with this device, he has been thus far unsuccessful at capturing a mosquito. He's used many liquid combinations for this purpose, but so far nothing is working. Hmmmm... Do you have any ideas that might work to catch mosquitoes?

Great idea. But is it useful to catch the pest around your home. I think calling a pest control exterminator will be a great solution to stop pest infestation.
