AI Thread Summary
Affordable mosquito traps suitable for research purposes can be found online in Delhi, India. A popular DIY method involves using a 1-liter soda bottle, where the top is cut off and inverted to create a funnel. The trap is filled with a mixture of 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 cup warm water, and 1 and 1/2 teaspoons of yeast. This combination attracts mosquitoes, allowing them to enter the trap but preventing their escape. This method is feasible for creating multiple traps, making it a cost-effective solution for collecting mosquitoes.

1 liter soda bottle, 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1 cup warm water, 1 and 1/2 teaspoons yeast. Put the top of the cut bottle back on, but upside down, and the mosquitoes will go in for a drink and not be able to get back out.
