Quote by Ehsan Sehgal

“As you are aware of that, the buzzing mosquitoes are bothersome; they try to bite you, wherever they have the fortune. Only take protective measures for that. Similarly, the devious people are the same nature, tackle such ones as the mosquitoes.”

“If the bible is correct and Noah saved one pair of each of the animals we have still on earth by taking them aboard his ark, I wonder what madness made him choose to save the mosquito. That was a great foolishness on his part. After all, what purpose do they serve? The birds eat them, I suppose, but there are other insects they might eat instead, that do not bite me before they are eaten.”

“The mosquitoes that carry malaria and transmit it to humans often become resistant to pesticides. Mosquitoes reproduce quickly, which means every generation has a lot of chances to produce mutants who can defeat humanity’s best weapons. Here’s one way we could win the arms race: Female mosquitoes often only mate once. What if we could trick them into mating with a sterile male? This should mean fewer cute little baby mosquitoes,* which means less malaria transmission. An early strategy to make sterile male mosquitoes was to expose them to radiation. This did indeed sterilize the males, but well . . . it turns out that when you expose a guy to a huge dose of radiation, it may increase his chances of sleeping alone.”
