The present invention relates to a preparation method of an ionic liquid for attracting mosquitoes and its application as a mosquito trapping device. Primarily, a main body of a mosquito trapping device is assembled with a carbon dioxide capture and release unit and a fan unit. Thereby, when in use, a heater of the carbon dioxide capture and release unit is used to heat ionic liquid for attracting mosquitoes set therein to release carbon dioxide. Then the fan unit is used to blow carbon dioxide out to attract mosquitoes to approach, and then a high-voltage grid set outside the main body of the mosquito trapping device is used to electrocute the mosquitoes to death. In addition, due to the characteristic that the ionic liquid can absorb carbon dioxide at a normal temperature, the air is introduced into the ionic liquid to capture carbon dioxide by a pump. Accordingly, the need for periodic replenishment of carbon dioxide-producing substances can be avoided, so as to achieve the benefits of improving the conven
