Unlike mosquito traps which attract and kill mosquitoes and other biting insects, these units keep them away from you. You place them near you to protect the area you inhabit outdoors. You can also put them near open doorways to protect a building. If you have moderate to heavy mosquito density, you should also get one or more traps.

The advantages of the Cognito are that it is very inexpensive to operate (less than 3 cents per hour per device), does not release even minimal toxicity and uses no flame. It is very compact, has no objectionable odor, and has nothing to monitor or clean. However, you need at least 2. One will not release enough scent to be effective. Add one more for each 4 additional people in the area.

Operation

The Cognito is 4" x 4" x 5" tall. It contains Conceal, a substance that is released from the little white container at the bottom, and is dispersed by the battery operated fan. To start the unit, you pull the shell apart until it clicks. When done, push it back together. This turns off the fan and seals the dispenser.

Conceal is a substance that masks the ability of the mosquitoes to locate people. It attacks the insects keen sense of smell so that they have difficulty finding people or animals - especially those in the immediate vicinity of a Mosquito Cognito.

One Conceal cartridge will last for 360 hours of operation or 15 24-hour days before it needs to be replaced. The 2 AA batteries will last approximately 720 hours or 30 days of continuous operation. You can start and stop the machine as often as you like.

Repellents are good for light to moderate mosquito activity. You need at least 2 devices to start for up to 4 people. One will not release enough Conceal to be effective. Add one for every 4 more people you want to protect.

If your outdoor area is more than a small patio or the mosquitoes are moderate to heavy, you should also get one or more traps. See our recommendation page.

Tests

In this test, Conceal in candle form was tested against no protection. 4 people, male and female, rotated through 4 locations.

The results are shown on the right. The control subject (unprotected) had 147 mosquito landings, while the others had 13, 13 and 1 respectively.

In a 4-day test conducted by Dan Kline of the USDA, people in an area with Conceal were tested against people in an area with no protection.

Landings on humans in the Conceal protected area were reduced by 70%.

Testimonials

United States Equestrian Team

In former times when the stable was not protected by the 'Cognitos, we had a lot of sensitive horses come out in the morning with bites and welts from the mosquitoes. My experience, given this summer and the amount of rain we had, we would normally have terrible mosquitoes. The Mosquito 'Cognito really works.

Dear Sir/Madame,
I am a monk at a Zen Buddhist Monastery in Japan. Mosquitoes here are a big problem, since we sit in motionless meditation for many hours a day. Of course, we will not do anything to the water around here to kill them, but we do use odors to try to get rid of them. While I was in America last year visiting my family, I brought a few of your green Mosquito 'Cognito machines, and they have worked very well for us. Thank you for making the product.

St. Louis Department of Health

Mosquito Cognito has already proven itself at on-the-job test sites around the country. For example, Vector Control Supervisor Mark Ritter of the St. Louis City Department of Health personally tested Mosquito Cognito and found it "remarkably effective." Trapping scores of mosquitoes over a few nights to establish a fair population benchmark, Ritter then used Cognito to determine its effect at keeping mosquitoes at bay.

"I was amazed at how successful it was," stated Ritter. "Mosquito landings dropped by over 80% .... This product really works."

Minneapolis Star Tribune

Smart Money magazine went to entomologists with the U.S. Department of Agriculture to test bug zappers. All were judged fair at best. But a much cheaper alternative called Mosquito Cognito was judged excellent. The softball-sized unit protects a patio-sized area, and works by emitting Conceal®, a chemical with inhibitor molecules found in plants and which prevents mosquitoes from smelling humans. The inhibitor cartridge lasts one to two months in normal operation.

• FAQs •

Q. What makes the Cognito better?		A. No other system effectively repels mosquitoes, black flies and no-see-ums without releasing toxic fumes, flame or using messy creams or sprays directly on your skin.
Q. Is this product safe?		A. Yes. It has no flame or toxic substance at all.
Q. How often do you have to refill the unit?		A. 2 AA Batteries power 720 hours of operation, or 30 days if left on continually. Conceal lasts for 360 hours of operation, or 15 days if left on continually. You can turn them on and off as needed.
Q. What is the warranty period?		A. Manufacturer's one year limited warranty.
Q. Where do you place the Cognitos?		A. The substance is carried by the wind, so to be effective as the wind shifts, you need at least 2 units on either side of up to 4 people. Get 1 more for each additional 4 people you want to protect. They can be placed anywhere near you. Place them around the perimeter if you have larger groups.
Q. How many people will one Cognito protect?		A. Area is not as important as the number of people. You need 1 for every 4 people starting with a minimum of 2. If mosquito activity is heavy, you should also get a mosquito trap or traps.
