Ultrasonic Mosquito Repeller

Since ancient times, people loved summer, warmth, appreciated nature and what they can get from it at this time of year. The only drawback, as Pushkin wrote, was “mosquitoes and flies,” but mosquitoes still took the lead in their ability to annoy us. There was no such thing as an ultrasonic mosquito repeller, and people suffered from these harmful insects that prevented them from enjoying the summer to the fullest.

Thank God now, when progress steps forward at a frantic speed, you can escape from these humming in every possible way: fumigants, repellents, lamps, creams, ointments, but among them the ultrasound from mosquitoes is very distinguished by its novelty and effectiveness. In this review, we will try to tell you in more detail what an ultrasonic mosquito repeller is, to reveal all the nuances and details of currently existing mechanisms.

Operating principle

First a little science. Mosquitoes are insects that feed on warm blood; the cold are not interested in them. Their receptors are specially tuned to feel the warmth and smell of sweat.

Only female mosquitoes need such food after fertilization, they avoid males and raise future offspring in the form of eggs. It is for this purpose that they need our blood. One female mosquito cannot be applied to “food” several times, which is very pleasing. When the female drank blood, she flies to lay eggs and then successfully dies. From the eggs new young specimens are born and this is how the circle turns out.

Note: there is an opinion that mosquitoes divide people by blood type and bite more than those who have one, and less than those who have another. This is not true, folk "notions." In fact, they often bite those who have more blood sugar. You don’t have to eat sweets to have blood sugar. Enough and rich in simple carbohydrates food - white bread, rolls, pasta, fruits. Even porridge lovers are attacked more than those who eat meat and vegetable salads, and drink unsweetened tea and coffee. Sugar in the blood comes from any carbohydrates, just sweet food delivers it faster.

The ultrasonic mosquito repellent works on the principle of the natural instincts of the females of these insects, because they bite us. The included device emits a low-frequency sound that mimics the sound of a male mosquito, which, as you know, a fertilized female avoids.

Important! Using such a device is much better than putting a device poisoning mosquitoes, after which dead insects will need to be swept away from the table or window sill. The device for repelling mosquitoes does not even allow them to approach the territory in which it operates. It remains only to thank those people who “got confused” and developed such devices.

Types of appliances. Advantages and disadvantages

Ultrasonic mosquito repellents come in two forms - portable and powered by the mains. Unfortunately, we have not yet invented those that could be charged by electricity and they would work by feeding on a charge throughout the entire life cycle. Now we will tell you about several devices and their advantages and disadvantages.

Important! Electronic mosquito repellers have one big advantage - they do not affect the ecosystem. They do not kill insects, they only scare them away, which means that there is always food for birds. Birds are known to protect plants from insects by eating them. And so on along the chain.

So, the types of devices.

Key rings

For example, electronic charms “Komarin”, according to the manufacturer, have an ultrasonic wave operating in the range of 10 square meters. m

Pros:

• Protection is wherever you go
• Convenient use
• Environmental friendliness

Minuses:

• There is no adjustment of signal power and radiation frequency and this anti-mosquito ultrasound may be ineffective. You yourself will never guess what signal it emits. It is possible that the waves in your keychain are not the same, and mosquitoes do not care that you have such “protection”.
• It is necessary to attach to something or have pockets to put it there. If you are dressed more than in summer, then there will be a problem with the place of wearing it.
• Only you are protected, but not the territory where you are. Well, when you are alone, if you have a party at the cottage or rest in the family circle, then everyone needs a keychain.

Bracelets

The same “Komarin”, but a bracelet. You can put it on your hand like a watch, or you can put it on your neck in the form of a pendant. It is said that the action of its waves extends in the range of up to 8 square meters. m

Important! The pluses are the same as those of the key fob, however, you can add the convenience of wearing to them. Cons - a lot of forgers took up the production, wishing to earn dishonestly, which means that you risk buying low-quality goods.

Repellers

How to scare away mosquitoes effectively, in large areas, without putting on bracelets or coating creams, using electronic devices - both on batteries and those that operate on a wall outlet.

Let's take the three most common devices that repel mosquitoes in the manner described above - making the sound of a male mosquito:

• “EcoSniper AR-115B”;
• “Tornado-OK 01-50”;
• “Weitech WK-029.”

The ultrasonic mosquito repeller “EcoSniper” is powered by electricity and is able to infect mosquitoes in areas up to 50 sq.m.

Pros:

• Additionally, it can serve you as a night lamp.
• It also makes a faint dragonfly sound, which mosquitoes also dislike.
• You can adjust the frequency of the wave and sound.
• The device is environmentally friendly.

Important! Cons: only works where there is a power outlet.

The other two devices are battery powered. It also infects insects within a radius of 50 sq.m. and they can be used both indoors and outdoors. Devices have only one minus - they do not work from the mains, only on batteries. However, this minus overlaps a big plus - you can use it wherever the soul desires.
