Engineer's $6 Mosquito Trap Interrupts Mosquito Breeding Cycles

An engineer from Pune, India, developed a low-cost mosquito trap, the EcoBioTrap, designed to attract and trap female mosquitoes, disrupting breeding cycles for diseases like dengue and malaria. The trap, priced at Rs 500 (about $6), works by mimicking human odor and collecting mosquito eggs. It's now being deployed in local communities.
