First post today, and I have a question or two. #1 Are there any Pheromone companies out there that are not rip offs?#2 I am part of a small research company that are trying to find an [unscented pheromone](https://a314.com/product-category/stealth-unfragranced/) that attracts insects. Like mosquitos. We are trying to develop a new trap and mosquitos are attracted to humans and I believe the pheromone they emit. Can anyone help me on this issue.Thanks for the welcome, and I see a lot of knowledgable people on the siteUncle Martin ---

If you take a look around at the forums here the scail and scope of users reporting helps promote that whats sold here isn’t a scam. Else you would have more predominant complaints. I have yet to run into any molecules that attract bugs but you never know it could be possible. Perhaps something like none. ---

The old defunct MX353 attracts mosquitos like hell… Great product (I mean the effects on women 😉😛), but this mosquitos effect was the only downside for me. I think it was the perfume scent. But who knows, maybe it is one of the molecules or the complete mix? ---

I can’t be a lot of help as out most successful work is now undergoing commercialisation, however I have posted links to some of our partners/collaborators work in the science forum. Annd to answer your other question, yes there are a few good and legit companies - Androtics is one and IMO the best. There is also Lovescent, although they are primarilly a reseller. Other firms are discussed herein. Grab yourself a togo of [Instant Shine](https://a314.com/product/shine/) or Ammo with your GC as a demonstration.Apologies if formatting is borked - I seem to be having website problems again! 😃 ---

Hi, unclemartin. Your name sounds somewhat familiar to me…😃 Coudn´t help myself. Anyway, i´m not a expert, but i have to say that [pheromones](https://a314.com/shop/), or at least the ones AD sell do work (i have not used other companies products, to be honest). I´ve been using several products for about eight weeks now, with different effects, rating from “not bad” to “amazing”. As mobocaster already said, go get yourself a gift certificate and get a couple of to go bottles of Ammo and Shine, and you will become a believer. You can read here how to quealify for one: [https://pheromonetalk.com/t/how-do-i-qualify-for-a-25-gift-certificate/19934](https://pheromonetalk.com/t/how-do-i-qualify-for-a-25-gift-certificate/19934) I can´t say anything about mosquitos. Maybe some more experienced users can tell you something, i don´t know. Welcome on board. Talk to you soon. ---

Welcome to pherotalk Uncle! That is interesting and I am not sure what to tell you. Luckily for you you can get a good amount of these 5ml bottles with your $25 gc and 500 rewards for a good price to start testing. To qualify for your $25 gc I will need to know what your personality is like How you came to know about this site Do you just want to use these mones to research mosquitoes or do you have another agenda
