Here in the Philippines we have smoke piles to keep away the mosquitos. How does it actually work?

Is the smoke an iritant to their eyes? I don’t think the little creatures breathe, right? Or do they? Also, when bees are smoked out of a hive, is it the same biological effect taking place as with the mosquitos? I guess I’m asking, HOW is the smokeout so effective, so fast, technically?
