Katol from Lanzones Peel / Mosquito repellant

Katol from Lanzones Peel / Mosquito repellant

There have been some study that like other plants lanzones peel has a certain compound that can repel mosquito. Way back in my elementary days I remember my sister making a project about this. They made a katol made from dried lanzones peeling they even copied the coil like structure of the commercially available katol.

Here’s how they do it.

Materials: Starch, aluminum foil, lazones peeling, commercial katol

  1. Lanzones  was sun dried for a few days.
  2. If the lanzones is fully dried you can now pulverized it using a mortar and pastel.
  3. Mix equal amount of starch and pulverized lanzones peeling add water to make a paste like consistency. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Now get the commercial katol and use the foil to make a mold.
  5. Now pour the mixed starch and lanzones into the mold and let it dry.
  6. You now have a katol.

 If your katol does not burn properly you could increase the ratio of pulverized lanzones

  4. They use lansones because it has the property to be insect repellant. I am not sure kung meron din ang oregano. ANother alternative would be ipil ipil. Yun pinaka lagayan nya ng buto if dry mo siya pwedeng pamalit sa dried lansones.

  10. bililang kayo ng katol then gamitin nyo yun para itrace sa foil yun korte.
    Ala akong alam na available na molder para dito

  11. add more starch po, starch here is used as a binder. THen mix thoroughly then air dry for about 24 hours

  12. is the lansones peel pulverized like a powder or medyo buo buo siya?

    Try to pulverized it further then mixed thoroughly. if no effect pa rin. Trial and error mo na lang in terms of volume ng water and starch
