Just grab yourself one of those cheap ($8 or so) bug zapper racquets out there and modify it for you use ?? They use two AA batteries and have 3 screens spaced 1/16 ? inch apart with the outer two being "ground" and the center "hot" -- small flies and mosquitoes make a wonderful rewarding "snap" when they get in between the screens (the mesh is maybe 1/4 inch). See what voltages they use there or modify it for you own use -- nothing better than a "snap" with a blue flash as the little critter goes up in smoke !!

I guess I read it too fast -- I thought he was looking for something to vaporize the mosquito (my preferred way of dealing with them).

Such a satisfying sound! The older models, with a single layer grid of parallel wires, work a bit better.
I think, though, that the OP was looking for a blivet for vaporizing mosquito repellant?

I like the harbor freight model. "Normal" price is $10, but they come on sale for $5 quite frequently. They use 2xD cells.

2 D cells ?? Hey, you could use that on bats !!! Have to check out Harbor Freight .. haven't visited them for a while (still sulking since Trendline went away for woodworking tools).
