The Photonic Fence is an invention by Intellectual Ventures Lab that can kill pesky mosquitoes with a laser beam. Such an invention is sure to put those citronella candles out of business, because it does more than deterring mosquitoes away from you, it kills them!
Aside from executing those bothersome mosquitoes, the Photonic Fence is smart enough to only target that species of insect and only the female—as the female mosquitoes are the blood drinkers. I just want to see this invention in action.
