QISTA are specialists in the fight against mosquitoes and similar insects. They have developed a mosquito control method using a trap called «Borne Anti-Moustique QISTA» (Anti-Mosquito Unit) designed to be used in urban areas. 
The method itself is both efficient and economical. It aims to substitute mosquito control using larvicides that have non-negligible, unintended effects. 
Furthermore, the traps are designed to offer a real solution to the proliferation of the aedes albopictus mosquito, vectors of tropical diseases such as dengue fever, zika or chikungunya. In fact, these mosquitoes breed in urban zones and so chemical spraying of wild zones is ineffective. 
By reproducing the exact elements of the mosquito’s palatability, the BAM units have reduced the discomfort caused by mosquitoes by 88% in the village of Sambuc over an area of 33 acres in the Camargue, untouched by other forms of mosquito control.
