The normal mode is not so effective to kill the mosquitos. But the active mode performs better relief from mosquitos.I use it way back in 2015 but now-a-days, I feel it does not works very well.it is not at all effective and frankly saying the smell or the fragrance of this product is also very bad.it is easy to use you just need to plug the device In and you are on the go.the price is also high like you can get 100s of other option with in this price-point.so I personelly think it as waste of money.Ive been using the Good night products the product quality slowly started & very dangerous for all childs.
