Claim:
1. A method of damaging a flying pest using a rotating laser system comprising the steps of: providing a laser apparatus including two or more laser beams laser beam being electrically powered, wherein the laser apparatus comprises a housing, a continuous perforated side wall extending from the housing to a laser contacting surface, a laser beam generator attached to the housing and positioned opposite the laser contacting surface to generate two or more laser beams with a wavelength of 350-700 nm, a laser rotating mechanism in communication with the laser beam generator to rotate the two or more laser beams in a 360 degree pattern at between 0.1-100 Hz, and an electric power source; generating two or more laser beams with the laser beam generator to transmit the two or more laser beams generally radially downward toward the laser contacting surface; and rotating the two or more laser beams with the laser rotating mechanism in a 360 degree pattern on the laser contacting surface at a rotation speed to form two or more rotating laser beams, wherein upon entering the laser apparatus a mosquito will contact the two or more rotating laser beams and be damaged.
