aedes aegypti mosquitoes

A new study shows that their tastes have changed, they are increasingly fond of human blood and this means an increased ability to transmit disease.

Students at Ben Gurion University (southern Israel) have developed a biological method that uses genetically modified bacteria to kill mosquitoes.

Mosquitoes are more likely to cause problems and illness for humans than any other creature. People can make this animal disappear forever, but why don't we do it?

A population of Aedes Aegypti mosquitoes carrying Wolbachia biological agents will be released to Tri Nguyen Island (belonging to P.Vinh Nguyen, Nha Trang City, Khanh Hoa) to

Brazil will release an army of genetically modified mosquitoes into the environment to prevent dengue epidemic spread across Brazil, causing nearly 500,000 people to get sick in

So far, it is believed that the Zika virus is primarily transmitted by the more popular Aedes Aegypti mosquito, which normally carries the virus that causes Dengue and Chikungunya

The Argentine team developed a trap targeting Aedes aegypti, the mosquito responsible for the spread of Zika virus.

The characteristic of Zika virus is that it burns people during the day, if mosquitoes appear at home and sting people, it is most likely Aedes aegypti.

Creating mosquitoes that cannot transmit disease is the way scientists kill dangerous infectious species but leave no consequences for ecological imbalance.
