  • the surface of the resting place has also to be designed according to the preferences of the targeted mosquito species. Some mosquito species prefer even surfaces while other prefer rough surfaces.
  • Mosquitoes need flowers as their source of energy. Providing flowers next to the ovitraps will increase the acceptance of the ovitraps as breeding spots by mosquitoes.

Adapting the ovitraps fully to the preferences of the targeted mosquito species will give it a much higher chance to for ovipositioning. As a result, the mosquitoes living near a Mechanical Automatic Lethal Ovitrap will prefer the artificial ovitraps. As a result, the number of mosquitoes borne in this area will drop.
