A mosquito coil made up from natural mosquito repelling plants will remove the health problems
caused by commercial mosquito repellents. If this project succeeds, this can be profitable for
business and can encourage others to look for others uses of our country’s natural resources.
Having an alternative solution to prevent the different kind of diseases that mosquitoes bring
especially dengue fever and not cause another problem. Our country being tropical country can

Literature Review
This study adopted a descriptive survey design. Structure questionnaire tagged "Mosquito Coil
made from Lansium Domesticum" were used to collect information from our respondents. The
questionnaire required the respondents to supply their honest opinion about Lansium
Population
The population of this study was 20 respondents from different barangays of Isabela City
Basilan.
Administration procedure
All the respondents were administered the questionnaire in their perspective houses. The
questionnaires were distributed together with Lansium Domesticum mosquito coil and
commercial product to make comparison. The respondents were assured that there were no
positive or negative answers. They were also meant to know that their responses were to be
treated as confidential.
Data Analysis
Data collected for this study were analysed using frequency distribution and simple percentages
present it as simple as I can so that everyone will understand the data. I also did not use any
graphics like tables, graphs or diagrams instead the group just used the very basic form of
My experiment resulted in a mosquito coil that is made from lanzones peelings which turns out
to be successful. I didn’t have major difficulties that can hinder us in making our study.
Results
It is conclusively stated that out of 10 respondents, 45% of them are between 18-23 years old,
40% of them are 24-29 years old, 15% are 30-35 years old. 57% of them are females and 43%
are males. Their occupation indicates that 34% of them are house wife, 26% are self employed,
30% are company employed and 44% are students. 20% of respondents are familiar in using
Lanzones peel as an mosquito coil while 80% of them are not familiar. Lastly, 90% of them are
willing to use Lanzones as a mosquito repellent while 10% are not willing to use it. There are
high percentage of respondents who agreed that the Lanzones peel as mosquito repellent are
effective. Therefore, lanzones peel stay away and kills mosquito. 40% of the correspondents
strongly agreed that mosquito coil made from lanzones cannot kill butterflies, moths and
grasshoppers, 49% agreed, and 11% of them neither agree nor disagree. 28% strongly agreed that
lanzones mosquito coil can paralyze/immobilize mosquitoes, 63% agreed and 9% neither agree
nor disagree. 32% strongly agreed that it can drop dead the mosquitoes when they get in contact
with the smoke, 57% agree, and 11% neither agree nor disagree. 17% of the correspondents
strongly agreed that Lanzones is available and abundant at the vicinity, 34% agree, and 49%
neither agree nor disagree. 29% agree, and 37% of them neither agree nor disagree. 54% of them
are strongly agreed that Lanzones peeling is seasonal and effective as a mosquito coil, 29%
agreed, and 17 percent either agree nor disagree. 17% strongly agree that Lanzones is abundant
and always available on a very cheap cost, 29% agree, and 54% neither agree nor disagree. 51%
of them strongly believe that over ripe Lanzones peel is much cheaper, 23% agree, and 26% of
I now conclude that the there is really ways on how to not waste fruit peeling like that of
lanzones. Also, it can be possible to make an organic, chemical-free mosquito coil and produce a
useful product from biodegradable waste. This definitely developed in us the value of
resourcefulness.
The advantage of having findings is that we could easily see the results if whether it has been
what it should be from what we expected or not. It also compares the results of the experiment
Recommendations
Mosquito coil made from lanzones peelings lets you drive away mosquitoes and other insects, in
a way that doesn’t add to environmental pollution. It doesn’t need special equipment to use it
other than just lighting it up and it is portable and can fit into small houses. I recommend this
product to everyone not only because it’s environmental friendly but also cheaper and easy to
I also learned that the lanzones dried peelings could be an alternative as a mosquito coil. It is
safer to use than the commercialized one since we didn’t use any hazardous chemical in our
mosquito coil. The corn-starch made the mixture thick, so we advise that they need to be careful
when adding it already so that it will surely become a paste, not too much but not too little. The
lanzones peeling were placed under the sun longer so that it would be crispy enough by the time
we are going to do the experiment. The team recommends this experiment to the other students
