Re: Electricity to kill parasites

There are several things incorrect in your posting.

"
It is not voltage or amperage that matters. It's frequency.
"

Your statement implies that the property of frequency is somehow mutually exclusive of voltage and/or current. In fact, frequency is an essential property of both voltage and current. Frequency is a wave property of matter. If you meant to say that the frequency value has a greater effect tan the amplitude of the voltage or current in causing something to happen, then that might be true in some situations and not true in others. For example, the zapper community and most other electromedicine disciplines are pretty consistent about needing not only energy at the "right" frequency, but enough of it to make change happen. So the amplitudes are important also.

Let's say for example that a tape worm of a specific species lives at a frequency of 475.00 MHZ. If you can feed a small voltage electric frequency pulse at square wave and 475.00 MHZ to the tape worm it will implode.
"

No, it won't. First, when an organism dies it doesn't implode. Usually it just dies, but if there is pressure involved, it is an internal pressure that causes an explosion, not implosion. Implosion can be caused only by either increasing the pressure outside the organism, or creating a partial vacuum inside the organism.

Second, 475 MHz is way way too high a frequency to harm anything in any way except for RF heating. If biological structures have a single or dominant resonant frequency, ti is less than 1% of that. PZ probably has more information on this.

"Take a 9 volt battery and wet both index fingers. Put the right index finger on the positive terminal and tap the negative terminal with the left index finger.
"

First, this is not how "the original zapper" worked. Second, this will not do anything effective. Fourier analysis is over 200 years old, is at the mathematical core of all of physical existence, and makes this pretty clear. Even if you are the world's fastest finger tapper, the fundamental frequency will be so low that there will be a trivial amount of energy at the harmonic frequencies that might do something. This goes back to the first point about amplitude being important. Compared to the original zapper, the harmonic energy levels in the "zapper bandwidth" will be reduced by over 99.9%
