This has been fairly common knowledge, at least here in India, where mosquito menace is common. Another really popular product is what is known as mosquito bats (swatters) like here: http://www.hunterbat.com/mosquito-swatters.html#rechargeable-mosquito-swatter http://www.hunterbat.com/mosquito-swatters.html#rechargeable...
- mataug 13y agoI would say this has been common knowledge for at least a generation or two in India. It also helps to remove sweat and the salt residue from the skin, i.e take a bath in the evening and stay cool.
- anonymuse 13y agoWow, really love that electronic mosquito bat! My girlfriend is a human version of a (mosquito-killing) HK-Aerial, and this seems like a good way to avoid some of the handprints-on-mirrors and bloodsplats-on-the-walls that can at times plague our pint-sized apartment. I have a feeling she'd have a blast with this weapon. Thanks!
- fnordfnordfnord 13y agoI used to look at those as if they were some kind of joke, but they are no joke. They will make you the annoying-insect-executioner.
- Vivtek 13y agoThe electric swatters are the bee's knees! They work great. Popular in Puerto Rico.
- biot 13y agoIs the electric thing a gimmick, or is there science behind it? I sometimes dispose of annoying houseflies using a racquetball racket. No electricity, but fast moving nylon strings take care of the flies nicely.
- ericabiz 13y agoThey're great fun. I live in Austin, TX and we have several in the house. They obliterate mosquitoes with a satisfying "POP" noise. The mosquitoes literally explode into tiny pieces when you hit them with the bat. It's awesome (especially when you are like me--I can get 20+ bites on a single night while wearing insect repellent, where everyone else around me is fine, and I use the bats as revenge. :)
