we bought a mosquito magnet when we lived in the keys. we bought it for the no-see-ums (midges). it worked ok but not terrificly. it's one of the main reasons we moved. we just couldn't take them any longer. day and night, 365 days a year, we couldn't walk outside. it wasn't like that when we first moved there, only the last couple of years. we had planes that flew overhead every week and trucks that sprayed the neighborhoods about three days a week, spraying chemicals to control the mosquitos and it killed the midges too. then they started using something safer and unfortunately it didn't work. i tried every natural remedy known to man; nothing worked.

forgot to add that this looked good but we never tried it. http://www.mosquitofree.com.au/home.asp
