New paper alert ⚠️
Simple techniques for a complex problem: sampling malaria vectors in Africa. @JDerekCharlwood @EntoMohamed @Fredros_Inc. Here we describe a set of approaches to monitor malaria vectors using a torch as the only source of energy.

Thought ticks were terrifying? They just got worse. Turns out they can use static electricity ⚡️ to launch through the air onto hosts, including you! Here's a thread about our new paper w/ @Katie__Lihou, Daniel Robert, out today in @CurrentBiology https://t.co/Z6Pz080YeD 🧵👇

#MicrobiologyMonday: Researchers developed a bacterial biopesticide w/ strong mosquitocidal activity. Sublethal doses did not select for resistance, nor did they influence mosquitoes' susceptibility to dengue virus or chemical insecticides. @mbiojournal: https://t.co/dFgKEbWsAv

Mosquito larvae can breathe under water for months, contrarirly the classical belief that they only breathe atmospheric air. We need to rethink the potential effectiveness of mosquito management by larval asphyxiation.
