Similar to the process of developing resistance to pesticides. Thus, if
a particular pesticide is not used in a certain area, there would be no
innate resistance. One would assume that there would be some form of
selection against natural predators. At times in the Everglades the air
is thick with dragon flies. I assume that Florida mosquitoes may be more
attune to the specific frequencies that other parts of the country where
there are fewer dragon flies. In addition, I have no idea IF there is a
specific frequency for their wing beats.  Personally, I wouldn't spend a
dime on one of these, unless I could use the battery for something.
