Fight mozzies with a chicken

-

IF you are off on holiday and worried about mosquitoes, fear not.

Researcher­s from Sweden and Ethiopia say having a live chicken in your bedroom will stop the blighters – who apparently don’t like the smell.

So do you take the chicken with you or do you buy one when you’re there?

And what do you do once your holiday is over? (Remember you’ve probably given it a name and bonded with it.)

Could this help our Olympic athletes worried about the Zika virus?

Maybe we should stick to nets, insect repellent and long-sleeved trousers.
