Our defences

In the war against mosquitoes, we will try anything. Here is an old-fashioned coil, smoking away (you can see some smoke, and the burnt bits already lying on the tray), and a modern electric plug-in, which sends up scented vapour. If any bugs get past these defences into the house, they come up against Paul’s anti-mosquito bat, which makes a satisfying crackle as he swings with a mighty forehand and electrocutes them. It’s our favourite present ever – thanks to Victoria and Sudhir!
