Mosquitos are bad enough when they're outside, but they can be especially annoying when they have the gall to come into your home and bite you. Slapping them isn't good enough; you need to get them before they get you. Learn how to make a mosquito-drowning trap in the video below.

Is it easy on the eyes? No. But the science is there, and it should certainly get the job done. Carbon dioxide is the one thing that draws mosquitos in, so being able to use this to your advantage is definitely a trick worth knowing.

You may notice that this trick doesn't work as well when you or a group of people are in the same room as the trap because your carbon dioxide output will be greater, but it should do a good job of clearing the room while you're out.

This is a great trick to try this summer. Make sure you follow the steps correctly otherwise it may not work.
