What Is an In2Care Mosquito Station? How It Works

how the in2care mosquito station works

The In2Care Mosquito Station is an innovative mosquito control system that turns mosquitoes into part of the solution. Using two powerful active ingredients, the station targets both adult mosquitoes and larvae, delivering continuous, area wide control that reaches places traditional treatments can’t.

Adult female mosquitoes are attracted to the station, land on the floater gauze, and become contaminated with a slow acting biological fungus and a highly effective larvicide. The fungus kills the mosquito within a few days and can block dengue virus replication, while the larvicide is carried on the mosquito’s legs to surrounding breeding sites. Because Aedes mosquitoes are skip ovipositors, they naturally spread the larvicide to multiple water sources, killing larvae wherever they lay eggs.

The result: targeted, environmentally responsible mosquito control that reduces Aedes and Culex mosquito populations without disturbing yards, pets, or pollinators.

How the In2Care Mosquito Station Attracts Mosquitoes

The station uses a combination of black color, strategic design, standing water, and a proprietary organic odor lure to attract egg laying female mosquitoes. It is especially appealing to Aedes mosquitoes, which prefer artificial containers, but it also attracts Culex species that use similar breeding sites.

How Long Do In2Care Mosquito Stations Last?

The In2Care Mosquito Station is built from durable, recycled polypropylene (PP) and is engineered to last for several years, even in tropical climates. To maintain peak performance:

  • Replace the floater gauze every 4–6 weeks using In2Mix® refill sachets
  • Deploy approximately 10 stations per acre in high risk areas with many Aedes or Culex breeding sites
  • Ensure stations remain filled with water and placed in shaded, vegetated areas

This setup provides consistent, long term mosquito reduction around homes and properties.
