Introduction: 

If we been to France, certainly we are going to miss something which will make us nostalgic. It may come as a surprise to many of us; but they are something we are sick of in our country. Yes, they are mosquitoes.

How lucky the Frenchmen are! They don't have to bother about these hum...mm...ing gnats. Actually, what makes them troublesome for us are "the female of the species" who use their long proboscis for puncturing our skin and sucking blood out. Also, it has been found that bite of some genus of this gnat to the likes of Culex and Anopheles may even cause malady as serious as malaria.

F or a long time, people are trying to get rid of these gnats by trying something or the other. So, development of mosquito-repellent machines now-a-days can't be denied. Several things have been tried out, each with some misfits. In this project, we have tried to overcome some such misfits.

                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             

Need:

Humans are growing health conscious more and more, and that's the reason it's next to essential to use some mosquito-repellent stuff. In earlier days, dried dung cakes, wood fire, mosquito-repellent coils (one of them goes by the trade name, KACHHUA) were used, but the smoke released by them was a serious concern for causing health hazards.

But in a country where "electricity saved is electricity produced', we can't expect the power supply to be there most of the time. Who in this world would like to find himself in the morbid situation of lying on the (preferably summer nights) and praying for getting into the world of dreams with the fan overhead showing like a stuccoes entity and obviously the mosquitoes are always there to add to his pity.
