Development of Electronic Mosquito Barriers (EMBs), which use high power pulsed electric fields to repel mosquitoes. Using pulsations that vary randomly in both strength and frequency, the EMBs create a mosquito-repelling force field. The unpredictability of the pulsations makes it nearly impossible for mosquitoes to learn or adapt to when, where, and with what force the electric field is coming.
