How does this work?
For real?
Anyway, you leave that hole in the front end open, mosquitoes fly in, you then pour some insecticide, then quickly close the mosquitoes in.
Finally you raiae the device over your head and shout abacadabra!
All the mosquitos will die inside the can.

It has the same shape as a sprayer used to spray a traditional wedding box called the potomanto. If you drank from an earthenware after eating roasted corn and pear please gather here.

Portmanteau not potomanto

Nigerians are unique people. I found out that we are more United in abroad than in the country. I Visited a friend in Luxembourg only to find out that most Nigerians mounts the bars. You don’t need to ask questions. I just whispered to the guy. Are u a Nigerian and he said yes. Boom we connected sharp sharp. He isn’t even of my tribe. You see as we dey yab Tinubu and the rest here. If a Ghanaian try am Omo we go pounce on the person. Only Nigerians have the right to insult their leaders.
that is a great one there, God bless your hustle out there and rescue us, our great nation from the grips of bad leadership.

I have seen Shelltox. I only heard if Flit. 'Flit the room' and with my small understanding of English Language then, I knew that that grammar has some accidents in it.

How does this work?

The sprayer consists of a reservoir for the insecticide liquid, a pump mechanism to pressurize the sprayer, and a nozzle for dispensing the liquid. To use, you fill the liquid holder, pumps the handle to build pressure, then releases the liquid by pressing the pump handle . The pressurized air propels the liquid out of the nozzle in a fine mist evenly it the air like how the aerosol pressurized cans of today do.
cool
