Lemon Eucalyptus Oil

The oil – particularly p-menthane-3,8-diol (PMD), its synthetic version with pesticidal properties
– is used as an alternative to toxic mosquito repellents and most likely works by masking the
environmental cues that mosquitoes use to locate their target.

For many years, it has been used in China as a product called Quwenling, meaning “effective
repellent of mosquitoes.” (PMD)

Lemon eucalyptus or PMD showed a “remarkable ability” to repel mosquitoes when compared
to DEET, the most popular synthetic commercial insect repellent today. DEET has been documented to
cause serious adverse effects, especially in children.

Meperfluthrin

is a pyrethroid pesticide with a broad spectrum, acting by contact, inhalation and repellent by its
strong deadly capability., and is effective to prevent and cure hygienic and storage pests

Charcoal Based

Results show that the charcoal-based coil had emission rates of PM(2.5) mass, total particle
number, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH), and aldehydes, substantially (up to 10 times) lower
than other tested conventional mosquito coils.

Results show that using charcoal powder as base material reduces fine particle emissions by a
factor of 5-10 and also reduces emissions of pollutants such as formaldehyde and PAHs substantially.

What is the worst bug on the planet? Some might say horseflies and wasps but it is actually the
mosquito. The buzzing, biting and itching. The mosquito is one of the most commonly detested pest in
the world. In Alaska, swarms of mosquitoes are so thick that it can kill a caribou. The mosquito can kill
hundred millions of people every year. Mosquitoes have been around for thousands of years and over
time, there have been thousands of species of them but they all share one characteristic: the suck
blood; and they’re really good at it. First, they slather saliva onto the person’s skin which acts as an
antiseptic; numbing the spot so we won’t notice their attack. This is what causes the itchy red bumps. It
then searches our inside for blood vessels until it can carry 2-3 times their weight. People spend billions
and billions of money just to get rid of them. Mosquitoes are not only annoying, they are also deadly. It
can cause diseases like malaria, yellow fever, west nile virus and even dengue which causes lots of
death not only to humans but to animals as well.
