Photo shows Dr Georgia Kirby  (from waist up) standing outside near a tree, hanging a Biogents mosquito trap from a tree branch.  The Biogents mosquito trap looks like an inverted funnel, with the wider part at the bottom, and a narrow end at the top.  The top is black plastic ring with an opening.  There is a source of carbon dioxide in the trap that draws mosquitoes into the opening.  They then get trapped in the funnel, which is made of netting material supported by a wire frame.  Georgia is wearing a black tshirt, has shoulder length dark hair and is wearing glasses.
