HOW TO TRAP MOSQUITOES
An Easy Method as Practiced in In
dia and Elsewhere

Mr.. John E Embich, of Lakeland.
hands us the following recipe for
trapping mosquitoes, which he has
tested with very satisfactory re-
suits. While mosquitoes in this
part of Florida are less plentiful
than in the average locality in the
north, even a few can be trouble
some, and We pass along this plan
for trapping them in the hope that
lit may benefit some one:
Trapping of mosquitoes in India
and the Fiji islands sounds some
what farcical but it is quite true,
nevertheless. One thinks of lions
and tigers in connection with trap
pingjin those countries, but English
Emedical inspectors, whose duty it
has been for years TO watch over the
sanitation in those countries, dis
covered a short while ago that NOS
quitoes could be quite successfully
trapped.
And the trapping is exceedingly
SINGULAR. All that is required is a
small box lined with green paper
and a bit of benzine In those coun-
tries the mosquitoes, while Lot usa;
ally plentiful, were found to be
quite dangerous, as they carried
germs that bring on a number OF
diseases.
A box about 1SX9xl2 inches, lined
with dark green paper, is placed on
the yeranda of the house at night
with the cover off, When daylight
breaks the mosquitoes seek some
shady, secluded place. This box,
with it's dark green lining, has every
Iappearance of shaded place among
foliage and the mosquitoes fly into
lit.
About $50 o'clock in the morn
