MosIn Trap the Intelligent Mosquito Trap

Abstract

Currently, dengue and malaria have been epidemic diseases over 129 countries which is 70% of the actual burden is in Asia. There are many electronic mosquito traps on shelve market. However, the trap only apply fan and UV light as components to attract and kill the mosquito. This project, a non-toxic mosquito killer is invented in order to kill the mosquitoes in practical way without chemicals, extremely quiet and safe with high capture rate of mosquitoes. MosIn Trap consists of a fan which speed can automatically change once the mosquito presence in the covered area. Any detection from the zapper will cause the fan's speed increase within 5 minutes and slowly down once the mosquito is not detected. MosIn Trap is installed by current sensor in the zapper to detect the presence of mosquito. Then, the data of detection information will be sent to the mobile application in order to monitor the time presence and number of captured mosquitoes. Thus, the mobile application will allow the user to remotely activate and deactivate MosIn Trap easily. An experiment was conducted in four different places which is bathroom, living room, garden and playground within16 days. Based on the experimental results, Mosin Trap get highest capture rate which is 82.6 % compare to the others product X (10.7%) and Y (6.6%) respectively. Therefore, the new mosquito trap namely as MosIn Trap has a high efficiency and best solution in order to trap the mosquito that can reduce the epidemic disease over the world.
