An American kills 4 thousand mosquitoes every night, using his dog as bait
Mosquitoes are a real scourge of summer, including for half of the United States, where millions of people lose countless hours of healthy sleep, irritated by annoying buzzing and an unbearable desire to comb themselves all over.
There are many ways to deal with the flying scourge. However, for those who live in places with high humidity, it is clearly impossible to do with a body spray against a cloud of mosquitoes that immediately cling from head to toe.
Therefore, Dan Rojas, the host of a YouTube channel called GreenPowerScience, discovered an environmentally friendly way to rid the world of several thousand mosquitoes in just one night.

In the center of this ingenious plan are two industrial fans, into the powerful air flow of which the bloodsuckers fall.
A net is placed on the fans, on which mosquitoes settle. It is also necessary so that nothing superfluous gets into the working mechanism — dust, beetles, leaves.
And the bait is the pit bull Rocky, whom Rojas saved a few years ago. The dog prefers to sleep outside in an aviary, on both sides of which Rojas puts fans. Moreover, not a single mosquito reaches Rocky.
However, all these tricks do not necessarily kill mosquitoes. Then the last resort comes into play — medical alcohol. Rojas sprays a net with stuck insects from a bottle. The alcohol quickly evaporates and lizards, ants and other animals come to an unprecedented feast.
As a bait, you can use carbonated water, putting a slightly open bottle between the fans so that insects can smell bubbles with carbon dioxide.
In his video, Rojas warns that the manufacturers of fans do not recommend leaving them running all night, but the "winner of mosquitoes" has never had problems with them for many years of use.
In total, Rojas kills several thousand mosquitoes in one night — he once counted 4 thousand.
