It’s always good to see Dr. Tszap at work.

It’s not perfect, but actually a simple oscillating fan works extremely well as long as you’re close enough to it for the air stream to directly hit you. It messes up their navigation when it comes and goes.

And it’ll guarantee an instant hurricane.

For decades, Walgreens used to have very small ceiling fans over the store entrances, that rotated fast. It wasn’t until I was older & learned why they had them. They kept flies out of the stores.

With mosquito’s speed topping out at about 4mph, this could actually work. Set a nice breeze of 10mph and you’d have few mosquitos to worry about.

Tip the fan up and you can ride the gusts!

…and it builds muscle pushing against that much wind, ha

Almost any fan will keep them away, they are very weak fliers.

I was wondering how it had no chemicals….

Obviously they’ve never met Alaskan mosquitoes.

Truth is, ten mph wind is usually sufficient.

fans actually work really well. Mosquitoes are terrible flyers. https://www.fairfaxcounty.gov/health/sites/health/files/assets/documents/pdf/ten-tiny-mosquitoes.pdf

Gonna be hard eating the food while it’s nailed down.

Amazing biometric identification: it works right through the professor’s rubber gloves!
