to many mosquito's? Kill them with Wi-Fi

A biotechnology company with a specialty in killing mosquitoes is turning to wireless technology and computers to make a killing for itself.

 

American Biophysics, a small private company based in North Kingstown, R.I., runs a healthy business selling the "Mosquito Magnet," a system to rid American backyards of biting insects, according to its new CEO Devin Hosea.

 

Simply described, the magnet emits a humanlike scent that includes carbon dioxide and moisture to attract bloodsucking insects. When the bugs flutter past, they're sucked into and suffocated by a vacuumlike device.

Technitians at ground radar sites can zero in on geese and ducks, and amplify the gain and cook them right out of the sky.

But no, this is an addon
