Using electric bats to kill mosquitoes

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: Can we use electric shock bats to get rid of mosquitos. It’s an equipment which is moved in air if mosquitos touches it, they get killed by electric shock and sometimes they get burned. We tried using mosquito coils etc, but they become resistant to all these. In our area, diseases are common like malaria, etc caused by mosquitos.

Bismillaah

A: Yes

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
