This video explains how the netting (or gauze strip)
in the In2Care mosquito trap can help to control mosquitoes.
In2Care develops ground-breaking products for insect control by learning from nature. Have you ever wondered how bees collect pollen?
Flying insects get charged when they fly by the friction of their wings. When the positively charged bee lands on a flower, the negatively charged pollen is efficiently transferred to the bee’s body.
Mosquitoes are also flying insects that get positively charged during flight – just like bees. Using In2Care InsecTech, they developed netting with static charge. Thanks to the static charge, small particles of biocide adhere to the netting.
The negatively charged particles can be efficiently transferred from the netting to any insect that lands on it.
With this novel technique, they contaminate mosquitoes with a high dose of biocide particles. This technique can break insecticide resistance. It is used in unique In2Care products to fight disease-bearing mosquitoes.
Through learning from nature, In2Care contributes to solve public health problems worldwide.
