How to Fight Back Mosquitos Mosquitos are the feature of Japanese summer. If you want to live a comfortable summer, combatting mosquitos is one big issue. So here are some Japanese tips so you don't have to use unhealthy insecticide. 1.Don't let them come near you Use a KAYA. KAYA is a large net like a tent that you can put up in your room so that mosquitos don't come in. It is good when going to bed, or when your children are playing indoors. Japanese houses used to be open so the wind blows through, and mosquitos were flying everywhere. KAYA used to be an essencial goods up till the 60s, and although they were replaced by screan windows, many people are revaluing the usefulness. It will be useful in areas where houses don't have screan windows for economic reasons or low building technology. 2.Instead of insecticide... Use a KAYOKE-SENKO, or a mosquito stick. There are many types, and those called KATORI-SENKO are usually made of Allethrin, a strong chemical component. KAYOKE-SENKO is most likely made of natural ingredients taken from pyrethrum (or insect flower) so better for your health. 3. When you are bit The best way to forget the itch is to wash the bite with soap and water! Mosquito saliva is acid, and the alkali of soaps neutralize it. Seriously, it cures the bite instantly! Please tell us if you know any other eco-friendly ways of combating mosquitos.
