I read there were genetically modified mosquitoes that only bred males. Is that commercially available? What about that laser that zapped roaches, has it been improved to zap mosquitoes too? Maybe there is a guide somewhere on how to build a DIY Anti Mosquitoes Air Defense System?

    I live in an area of the country where mosquitoes are a year round nuisance. Think mangroves and tropical weather. Thermacell devices actually work, unlike just about every other device out there.

      I’ve try mostly everything avalaible for mosquito and nothing work.

      I might give thermacell a go as the review seem pretty good

        Just be careful where you use it. The active chemical is VERY dangerous to aquatic and amphibian life, and can cause serious problems in cats. Dogs don’t seem to be impacted though.
