I am not an expert, but the last time I looked at this kind of thing what I took away from it was that you're not really doing anything to negatively impact the total mosquito population, you're just creating a new nesting site that won't produce adults. My understanding was that while it might feel good, it is not actually doing much to impact the population.
replyApparently mosquitos don't really migrate. They get migrated by wind, but otherwise they stick to a relatively small radius. The idea with these is that you can reduce the hyperlocal population, like in a patio area. I use them on my property. It's not a silver bullet, but I can spend most nights outside without being overwhelmed as long as I maintain them.
