Hey folks,

It's rainy season here in Malaysia and my number one enemies are flying into my house -- hungry for my blood : Yes, I'm talking about vamp...I mean mosquitoes.

Any of you guys here have a great way to set up some sort of autopilot mosquitoes killing machine? (I don't mind cutting through plastics and card boards or whatever - I love home science and arts)

Cheers,

    There ARE devices that use CO2, some attractants, etc... and kill mosquitoes. They are basically made for outdoors. But I will tell you the "secrets"!....

    1. Make sure NO stagnant water, that has no oily residue, is within 1Mile, preferrably 20 miles, of your home. THAT will all but DESTROY the likelyhood of mosquitoes to come into your home. MOST will migrate only 1 mile, but some will migrate up to 20, and part of their lifecycle has them as aquatic airbreathers. They need stable water that has things they can feast on. If there is an oily residue on the water, it can foul up their respiration.

    2. Enter your home during the day. Supposedly, they like dimmer times better, like early morning and late afternoon.

    3. Get in quickly and be observant.

    4. DON'T leave any windows, etc... open.
