Spartan Mosquito Eradicators are extremely effective in controlling and decimating mosquito populations. The Eradicators eliminate active “hunting” mosquitoes, many of which are females preparing to lay eggs. Once deployed, the Eradicators will work together to form a barrier to “catch” hunting mosquitoes by emitting the same attractant triggers that draw mosquitoes to people and animals. Mosquitoes that feed will perish and are not able to reproduce. The mosquito population will suffer dramatically in the first 15 days and will be 95% controlled for up to 90 days.
