mosquito trap...

i don't know if it is a plague or epidemic, but sibu town seems to have lots of mosquitoes... a sitting for watching tv could cause you to become an all-you-can-eat-buffet for the pesky mosquitoes...

there is this contraption that sort of help with solving the problem...

it is called MOZZTECH as you can see... a funny little lamp-like thingy that supposedly will catch the mosquitoes...

so how does it do its job???

by emanating UV light that attracts the mosquitoes... the broucher says that it also emits a human-like odour (which i can't detect) that attracts the mosquitoes to it, in addition to the light... there is a rotating fan that sucks in the mosquitoes and traps it inside a cage like compartment underneath the product...

as you can see, the mosquitoes are trapped inside and will eventually dried out...

while this is a good thing, the rate of which the mosquitoes bread is exponentially fast... making the contraption play catch-up... i probably have to get a few more...
