yopur speakers have to be able to play hi frequencies

Is this for real 99%,have you tried ,does it work?

[manker]

Many mosquitos there in Norway then, zed :huh:

[DanB]

[Money Fist]

LMAO
some one wrote a review on the software



Takes time for results
I underestimated the software when it put cock about ultrasonic, blah blah... But I happened to open my CPU to find a dozen mosq below the PC speaker lying DEAD.

[99%]

its for real (although i dont know if mosquitos react against high frequencie)
if you have adog or pets - do not use
(or if you hate your neighbours pet - use)
cats really like it
(i hate cats)

I reckon it's the same as here.

Most of the year there are none, but for a few months, just about time now btw, we got lots of the wee buggers hatching all over the place :dry:

Everywhere water stands still and it's hot enough, really.

Alaskas meant to be one of the worst places for mozzies actually saw a bloke running like mad from them in a documentry once

I'm pretty sure we don't get proper mosquitos here so I figured that you wouldn't there. Learn something everyday, tho' :D

[manker]

Actually maybe we do because I've seen mosquito larvae while fishing - I knew that's what they were because I used to buy them specially from shops to treat my tropical fish - but no-one ever seems to get bitten.

When I go to Spain, I get bitten loads. Different sub-species of mosquito, I suppose.

These are the alcohol loving mosquito`s. :dry:

[99%]

You do know that the only mosquito's that bite are female
(no this is not a sexist remark : science)

[GepperRankins]

are daddy long legs and midges mosquitoes?

[Gripper]

are daddy long legs and midges mosquitoes?

Midges are bloodsuckers,Daddy long legs are harmless and quite nice to eat :)

[manker]

Duno, there are loads of gnat things that annoy me but they don't bite like wot those nasty foreign mosquitos do.

"ahhh yeah baby, take that you bitch, im gonaa suck you dry, does it hurt does it muwahahhahaha"

Sorry to burst any bubbles, but even if this wasn't the blatant scam that it clearly is, ultrasonic mosquito repellents have been scientifically tested and simply do not work..


Repelling Devices
At least 10 studies in the past 15 years have unanimously denounced ultrasonic devices as having no repellency value whatsoever. Yet, consumers flock in droves to hardware stores to purchase these contraptions. Why?

The discovery that mosquitoes locate mates in mating swarms via wingbeat frequency generated a great deal of research into ultrasound as a potential source of environmentally friendly control. Yet, all attempts to affect mosquito behavior by ultrasound fizzled, despite enormous amounts of money spent on research and development. To be sure, the clever, high-tech and imperceptible (by humans) use of ultrasound proved to be an exceedingly effective marketing tool for the repeller manufacturers.

Homeowners were urged to buy ultrasonic repellers and the like to rid their houses of pests without the need to inhale "even one breath of poisonous spray." This appeal to the public's chemophobia, while extremely effective in diverting attention away from proven preventive and control measures (and toward their repeller products), has undermined an unbiased review of the subject by consumers desperate for a clean, effective, nonchemical means of mosquito control. Unfortunately, no such miracle cure exists. A pioneering study testing five different ultrasonic devices against four mosquito species convincingly demonstrated that ultrasound in the 20-70 kHz range used by these devices had no effect on reorienting flight by female mosquitoes either toward or away from human subjects. Additional tests have shown that sound generators capable of a wide range of frequencies were also ineffective in repelling mosquitoes. The fact is that these devices just do not work -- marketing claims to the contrary.

The other category of mosquito control devices are the sonic and ultrasonic repellers. Sonic repellers were first marketed in the 1970s. They purported to imitate the flight sound of a male mosquito and worked on the assumption that a mated female mosquito would avoid further contact with males. Other devices were supposed imitate the flight sounds of dragonflies. Although testimonials as to their effectiveness abound, most of these devices have been tested in the laboratory or field and have shown no repellency.

More recently ultrasonic repellers have been developed, which purport to mimic the sounds made by bats. These also have been tested in controlled experiments and found ineffective in reducing mosquito biting rates

So I can uninstall it now :unsure:

Might as well wait now, until every stray dog in the neighbourhood is scratching at your front door... :lol:

[manker]

Shh, don't mention dogs, you'll have Chebus upset and arky excited :ermm:

[BawA]

heh, there is a same kind of program for mobile, never try it tho

[99%]

Mods - please change title to "Drive all Pets Nuts Software"

[manker]

Or "Software to attract a mate for your bitch".

[99%]

much better thank you - couldn't articulate the wurds if ya kanow wot i meen

[manker]

Ehhh, your own was good too.

[99%]

yes but the use of "Nuts" could arouse certain personas in our midst which will lead to a sadly off topic thread about peanutile digestion

[manker]

You're right, zed. It would indeed be a travesty should this thread go off-topic :D

[99%]

So...this Anti Mosquito Software software lied to us
can we tolerate this?
It is a Digrace
Should we not protest, sue, pillage and watch a national geographic or something
(even though its free)

Mosquitos = 1 point
Software = 1 Mosquito bite

Maybe barbie is the liar and wants to keep all of the precious freeware to himself.

Hmmm ... we should burn him to find out the truth :shifty:
