Fowl smell can protect you from malaria.
According to studies by scientists from Ethiopia and Sweden, malaria-borne mosquitoes run away from chicken and other birds.
A research conducted in western Ethiopia has found a dead cage near a man sleeping in a mosquito net.
According to the United Nations, four million people died of malaria in Africa last year.
Parasites of malaria are hidden in the liver before they spread to the blood. Drink the blood of a malaria mosquito person and then pass that parasite to another person.
According to research published in 'Malaria Journal', scientists have concluded that if mosquitoes find their prey from the smell, there may be something in the poultry smell that they do not like.
Habte Teki of Addis Ababa University, who is involved in this research, said that some chemicals can be used in mosquito-keeping creams by removing some chemicals from the smell of the chicken.
He told the BBC that further research areas would be trialled.
Researchers from the Swedish University of Agriculture Sciences were also involved in this study.
In this experiment, chemicals extracted from the feathers of the hen and live chickens were used.
Researchers found that the number of mosquitoes had decreased significantly from poultry and these chemicals.
