Now You Can Repel Mosquitoes With An App

Weary of spraying sticky mosquito repellent on your arms? Sick of the bug spray stench? Then this app is for you: introducing Anti Mosquito, the app that releases a high-pitched sound unheard by humans but extremely irritating to mosquitoes.

According to the description of the app on Google Play, mosquitoes really don’t like certain sonic frequencies, and “most humans” won’t hear the sonic frequencies emitted by the app. Instead of buying a can of spray, now hikers and campers can just whip out their smartphones and activate Anti Mosquito and voila! Mosquitoes are gone.

One potential downside to the app is if your phone dies while traipsing through the woods. If you’re out in the wild, then you won’t be able to recharge your phone. Unless you have a can of stinky bug repellent on you, then welcome back mosquitoes. (RELATED: Water Droplets May Be Able To Charge Smartphones)

For short outdoor excursions however – like cookouts in the backyard — the app may be a much more attractive option than spraying oneself with icky bug-repelling chemicals.

CNet put up a really neat video profiling the app, which you can view below.
