This Moosquito repellat circuit uses two BC547 transnistor as astable multibibrator. The Astable Multivibrator, which is generally used as a signal generator, is once again used here to generate the desired frequencies. It is an excellent example of the fact, how versatile simple basic electronic circuit can be.

Mosquitoes are annoying to those of use who prefer to be outside in the spring and summer. Bloodsucking mosquitoes have been controlled by various chemicals from DDT to DEET.

It says the effectiveness will last for 300 hours, and as recommended on using 10 hours each night to last for 30 days.My Own Comment:I already use it a week by now. It works quite well, somehow only 70-80% success rate. As I know it could be affected by area of usage and the wind around. I didn't follow the recommendation at all, because my house is full of mosquito in this rainy season.I hope it works long enough

Apparently, for places like Africa, the need to safeguard the whole body from the normal insect bites have become a significant alert as far as health standards and preventive measures from contracting unlikely diseases today. Some may get the illnesses like Dengue and other insect-transmitted diseases that bites the bloodstream of most individuals to spread these diseases.
Surely, a mosquito net is not all that expensive. All it takes is just to place one once you sleep and of course something to get used to.

They will be swarming once again, the unwanted, winged torturers, looking for the victims and leaving behind swelling and itch!
The mosquito problem is a part of everyday life, espacially during the summer.
Since the immemorial, inventive people have struggled hard to find effective means of protection against these insects. Even though it is a fact that only the females are dangerous, the males can also create situations of panic by their humming. Scientists say that these and many other insects find some particular frequencies of sound very unpleasent abd run away from these frequencies.
It seems quite obvious then, that by creating these insects frequencies electronically, we should be able to repel these insects! The most important point to remember here is that, unfortunately, this method has so far not been completely sucessfull. Whereas one group of insects can be made to run away at frequencies around 5 KHz, other types may desert only at higher frequencies, about 10 to 20 KHz
Image the most beautiful day in the summer. When the sun sets, you're drinking on the terrace and enjoying the view. Suddenly you feel something itchy on your arm; you just got stung by a mosquito (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mosquito) (Anopheles gambiae). Say goodbye to your beautiful summer evening and hello to an annoying scratching bumb.

People most likely to be affected are newcomers to affected regions, such as babies, young children, tourists or new employees, but anyone experiencing these symptoms should seek medical advice quickly. Dr Lindsay said the warning particularly applied to people living, visiting or camping near swamp and river systems during the evening and night in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions. However, mosquito breeding in northern WA at this time of year is also often associated with man-made or artificial water bodies such as dams, sewage lagoons, irrigation areas or domestic containers.

De la web maskusplanet extraemos este interesante review sobre la historia del ringtone del mosquito.Es conocido por todos que existe un tono para celulares llamado mosquito, el cual tiene la propiedad de ser escuchado sólo por los más jovenes. Todo empezó cuando una empresa de seguridad inventó "el mosquito", un dispositivo que emite un sonido para espantar a los adolescentes (útil contra barras bravas, peleas entre colegiales a la salida y fans enamoradas en conciertos de boys band).Pero "el mosquito" fue reinventado por un anónimo, y lo convirtió de un arma contra los jóvenes a una herramienta útil. Así nació el ringtone mosquito. La distribución se hizo por internet a la velocidad de la luz.La ciencia tiene una explicación para esto, y la denomina presbiacusia, que consiste en la pérdida gradual de la audición con el paso de los años, un mal bastante común entre adultos.Hay concenso en que ningún adulto ha podido escuchar el sonido de frecuencia más alta (17959 H
The mosquito is a member of the family Culicidae; these insects have a pair of scaled wings, a pair of halteres, a slender body, and long legs. The females of most mosquito species suck blood from other animals. Size varies but is rarely greater than 15 mm. Mosquitoes weigh only about 2 to 2.5 mg. A single flight can last about 4 to 5 minutes. They can fly at about 1.5 to 2.5 km/h and most species are nocturnal or crepuscular.
Mosquitoes are believed to have evolved around 170 million years ago during the Jurassic era (206–135 million years ago) with the earliest known fossils from the Cretaceous era (144–65 million years ago). They supposedly evolved in the land mass that is now South America, spreading initially to the northern continent Laurasia and re-entering the tropics from the north. Ancestral mosquitoes were about three times the size of the extant species and they are a sister group to the Chaoboridae (biting midges).

Brasileiro desenvolveu insetos resistentes com engenharia genética. Os mosquitos geneticamente modificados e com ameaçadores olhos verdes fluorescentes são o mais novo inimigo da malária. O inseto não pode ser contaminado pelo parasita transmissor da doença e vence a competição com o mosquito comum, tomando seu lugar.
Os insetos desenvolvidos por Jacobs-Lorena e Rasgon em uma universidade americana, possuem um “gene antimalária,” que age na sucção de sangue dos mosquitos, e intensos olhos verdes - que impedem que eles sejam confundidos com mosquitos comuns. “O gene bloqueia a passagem do parasita diretamente na sucção. Os insetos nunca são contaminados,” explica Rasgon.
Segundo Jacobs-Lorena, a modificação genética mostra “promessas consideráveis.” O próximo desafio, segundo ele, &eacut

Word has it that this is the worst summer in a long time for mosquitoes. I guess I should say it's a very good year for mosquitoes and a bad year for humans and other warm-blooded mammals. It's also a good year for swallows and other flying insectivores, including dragonflies. "Dragonfly naiads consume mosquito larvae in the breeding waters, and adult dragonflies eat adult mosquitoes." (Wikipedia). Which brings me to the helpful part of this post:Mosquito Deterrents: This is the best information I could find.
