Phones That Repel Mosquitoes [Edit]

A South Korean telecommunication company is offering its customers an innovative solution to rebel mosquitoes: using their mobile phones.

For about $2.50, the company will allow you to play a sound wave file that rebels mosquitoes within a range of one meter, without being heard by human ears.

The sound is similar to the buzz of a male mosquito, which turns the blood-sucking female mosquito off and drives her away.

I hope the file makes it to the Internet soon so people can play it for free. Charging $2.5 per play (not per download) is simply outragous. Even iTunes charges $0.99 per song download. And some of these songs can be very annoying.

From Monday, subscribers to SK Telecom Company will be able to download a sound wave that humans cannot hear, but that annoys mosquitoes within a range of one metre (one yard). (news.bbc)

Couldn't we all use this! Those evil things make me crazy, and I hate the smell of insecticide!

Whenever I find the file I will put it on my blog and send it to you Elsa. I hate mosquitoes.
