Mosquito Noise Deterrent Device
 he
Mosquito is an ultrasonic devise which produces a sound that only young
people can hear. It was developed in the UK to deter unwanted
gatherings of youths and teenagers in shopping malls, around shops and
anywhere else they are causing problems.
According
to the company that produces the devise, police forces in many areas of
the United Kingdom have described the mosquito as “the most effective
tool in our fight against anti-social behaviour”. Shop keepers have
purchased the device to move along unwanted gatherings of teenagers and
anti-social youths. Railway companies have placed the device to
discourage youths from spraying graffiti on their trains and the walls
of stations.
