Description

Here is a perfect deterrent to mosquitos, no chemicals, no pesticides, no oily sprays, just mother natures perfect predator. The dragonfly is the ultimate mosquito predator with a hunt success rate of 95%.

 It can be printed in a single colour, but since mosquitos can see in colour, i recommend two. I chose blue and green as it is the most common colour of dragonfly's in my part of the country. You obviously can adjust the colour accordingly. 

 NOTE: The colour of the wings and the mounting filament are PETG translucent clear, not grey as in the file.

 

 This model is designed to be used in any of three different ways.

 - It can be hung from a top mounted loop as a static deterrent,  or it can be sewn directly to a hat (or any other fabric surface) with the attached bottom mounted loop, or attached with the hat clip to give the illusion of flight.

  -The hat clip uses a 4 to 6 inch length of 1.75 filament, slightly straightened. The eyeball has a 70 degree range of movement to adjust it to where you want it.

 

 - Assembly is easy requiring just a few drops of CA glue. A few drops to attach the eyeball cup to the hat clip (it was designed this way to avoid supports). A drop to each end of the filament to attach it to the eyeball and the underside of the dragonfly, and that's it.

 

 For another natural deterrent you can find my Decoy wasp nest here.  https://makerworld.com/en/models/2636070-queen-cell-wasp-nest#profileId-2911697
