Popularity: this is the 3rd most popular campaignBite Back aims to rid us of the disgusting Mosquito Device.
The Mosquito Teen Deterrent is a device that emits a high pitched noise aimed at dispersing young people gathered in public places. The frequency of the device is above the hearing range of people over 25 years, thus it specifically targets young people.
he Mosquito causes discomfort to children, and in turn impacts on parents and parenting. For example, an eight-year-old boy in the UK said he had heard the Mosquito device in operation, but was afraid to tell his parents in case they did not believe him. “That buzzing noise”, he said, “I’ve heard it, the other night about one in the morning”. “What were you doing out at that time”, asked the reporter. “I wasn’t”, said the child. “I live over the shops. It’s always waking me up.”
Its discriminatory and unfair. Ban it.
