Take control of your compatible Mosquito acoustic deterrent devices directly from your phone. Mosquito Control is the companion application for property owners, site managers, security teams, and authorised personnel responsible for configuring and operating Mosquito devices. The app connects directly to nearby units using Bluetooth Low Energy, providing a convenient way to manage device operation, schedules, inputs, and security settings. CONNECT TO YOUR DEVICES Scan for compatible Mosquito devices nearby, connect over Bluetooth, and quickly return to previously remembered devices. View the connected device’s name, serial number, firmware version, and current operating status from within the app. CONTROL DEVICE OPERATION Start or stop a connected Mosquito MK5 device when required. Choose a custom operating duration or select continuous operation, and monitor the device’s live ON or OFF status. CREATE WEEKLY SCHEDULES Configure individual operating schedules for each day of the week. Add, edit, or remove timers; set start and end times; and select the required output frequency and volume for each scheduled period. Existing daily schedules can also be copied across the week for faster setup. CONFIGURE OUTPUT SETTINGS Adjust default operating options, including output frequency, volume, duration, warning beep, light-flash behaviour, and start-up settings. Devices can also be given recognisable names, making multiple installations easier to identify and manage. MANAGE EXTERNAL INPUTS Configure supported wired inputs individually. Assign names and customise their frequency, volume, input type, behaviour, override settings, and duration mode to suit the requirements of each installation. SECURITY AND DEVICE MANAGEMENT Protect access by changing the device’s six-digit Bluetooth PIN. Authorised users can also restore the connected unit to its factory settings when necessary. FIRMWARE SUPPORT The app identifies compatible devices that require a firmware update and install the bundled update over Bluetooth, helping supported hardware remain current. HELP AND PRODUCT INFORMATION Access the Mosquito support portal, product documentation, FAQs, directly from the app. IMPORTANT A compatible Mosquito MK5 acoustic deterrent device is required. Bluetooth must be enabled, and the relevant Bluetooth permissions must be granted.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: MK5 at none against Frequency Analyzer's 11. MK5 also leads on device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (15.1 vs 17.2). On price and ads there is nothing between them.
