Rock sugar water plus soap kills mosquitoes

In summer, not only is the hot weather annoying, but what is even more uncomfortable is the presence of mosquitoes flying around everywhere. Mosquitoes are generally very annoying creatures because they like to drink human blood. Once a mosquito bites human skin, mosquito bites of varying sizes will form mosquito bites on the skin surface. Therefore, many folk remedies have been developed to fight mosquitoes. Can rock sugar water mixed with soap kill mosquitoes?

Mosquitoes like dark and humid environments, especially water environments. They will lay eggs in water. Depending on the species, mosquito eggs may be laid in three different locations: on the water surface, at the water's edge, or in the water. The eggs on the water surface include Anopheles and House mosquitoes, and the eggs at the water's edge include Aedes. Anopheles and house mosquitoes hatch in about two days, while Aedes take three to five days. Sugar water attracts mosquitoes to lay eggs in it. If the sugar water is thick enough, it can stick to the mosquitoes. This is a long-term process of killing mosquitoes. It will be better to replace the sugar water with soapy water or laundry detergent water. Soapy water and laundry detergent water can kill the mosquito larvae in the water.

White sugar is refined sugar made from molasses extracted from sugar cane and sugar beets. White sugar is white, clean and sweet. White sugar contains carbohydrates, which are one of the main sources of nutrition for the human body. The human body's consumption is maintained by the heat energy generated by the oxidation of carbohydrates. About 70% of the energy required for human activities is supplied by carbohydrates.

Dilute solutions of sucrose are susceptible to infection by microorganisms, but the chance of infection decreases as the sugar juice becomes more concentrated. In addition, it is also related to the temperature and pH value of the sugar juice. Generally, the optimum temperature for microbial reproduction is between 30 and 45°C, and when heated to 80°C, most microorganisms can be inhibited or killed.
