PEP BB homesteading.straw.mosquitotrap - Set up a mosquito trap

This is a badge bit (BB) that is part of the PEP Curiculum.  Completing this BB is part of getting the straw badge in Homesteading 

In this Badge Bit you will build your own mosquito trap.

Trying to garden or relax with a mosquito in your ear is impossible.  Mosquitoes are attracted to the CO2 in our breath, odors in our sweat, and the heat of our body. Yikes!
