Method:
- Take a 2 liter plastic bottle and cut off the top with a knife or scissors.
- Pour a glass of hot water into the bottle, then add half a glass of sugar and mix well until the sugar is completely dissolved.
- Let the sugar water cool until lukewarm, then add 1/2 teaspoon of yeast.
- Mix gently, then pour the mixture into the bottom of the cut bottle.
- Place the top of the bottle upside down over the bottom, forming a sort of funnel.
- Wrap the bottle in black paper or cardboard, leaving only the funnel uncovered.
- Place the trap in a cool, wind-free place where there are many mosquitoes.
