bzigo knowledge bomb

i can't wait for bzigo to be available. their website says it will retail for $170 and will come out next year. netizens are mocking the product but i think bzigo will be a game changer and will significantly improve our quality of life. here's why: 

it's easy to install screens in a house or room so mosquitoes can't get in. but a few will still be able to get in as they hover near a person who is walking in the room. mosquitoes can live for 3 weeks. so it's easy to have at least 5 mosquitoes in a room, enough to really annoy anyone. mosquitoes are also a dengue hazard.

it's very easy to kill a mosquito by just swatting it with a hand towel if you know where they are. the problem it's very hard to know where they are. you don't really need to see them. you just need to swat the surrounding area where they are with a towel. when a mosquito lands, the bzigo device will point you where the mosquito is using a laser pointer.

i'm an expert on this because i enjoy hunting mosquitoes. it's so fun and challenging. the problem is i can only see mosquitoes in a well lit room where there are no furnitures and everything is white. example is in a very brightly lit bathroom with white tiles, white walls and white ceiling. but if the room has dark curtains, furnitures and not brightly lit, the mosquito will easily disappear out of sight via camouflage. 

when i'm fixing up one of my UNFURNISHED properties to have it rented and i sleep on the property, and the walls and ceilings are painted white, i install very bright lights and it's game on !!! i go around the room swatting around the walls and ceiling with a hand towel to get the mosquitoes airborne and once i see them, even when they are still flying, i just wack the mosquito with the hand towel and even if i don't hit it, the wind force generated by the hand towel will knock the mosquito off the wall or floor and kill it. the next challenge is searching for the dead mosquito, especially if the floor is dark. i collect my kills inside a jar as trophies and by the time the property gets rented out, i have a few dozen mosquitoes in the jar.

my bathroom is very brightly lit and has white tiles, walls and ceiling. but my room has too many furnitures and it's too big to be brightly lit even using a bulb with the highest wattage. so what i do is whenever i'm taking a shower or taking a dump, i open the bathroom door so the mosquitoes will go in because they are attracted to the carbone dioxide and body heat humans emit. after my business in the bathroom, i close the door and the hunt begins !!!

by the way those bug zappers kill other insects but they don't work on mosquitoes.
