<br>Does Electrifying Mosquitoes Protect People From Disease? Maybe slightly, but that’s not why bug zappers are so widespread. I spent my childhood in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, where I used to be tormented by mosquitoes day and night time. I happen to be a type of individuals whom the bugs find very enticing. My legs and [https://wiki.learning4you.org/index.php?title=Yearly_The_Miller_Moths_Invade Zap Zone Defender Device] ankles had been perennially so bitten that typically I was requested if I had a skin disorder. Now I stay in Jamaica, and the mosquito torment continues. Last year, I contracted Zika. For these reasons and others, I must reluctantly admit: I’m a mosquito killer. And I’ve sought methods for revenge. The bug-zapping racket is a fantasy come true. It is a tennis racket-like machine with electrified wires instead of strings. Its wielder waves it via mosquito airspace. Then: a satisfying sizzle.

The idea of electrocuting insects goes again more than a century. In 1911, Popular Mechanics ran an article about an "electric death trap" for killing flies.
