Wolbachia is a bacterium that can make mosquitoes much less able to spread diseases like dengue & Zika. Using a new mathematical model, this #RSOS paper identifies the minimum “critical bubble’’ of released #mosquitoes needed for Wolbachia to establish across a landscape: doi.org/10.1098/rsos...

The nearly 2 million bug zappers sold in the United States each year cause the needless deaths of billions of innocent insects. We need to get the word out that they don't control mosquitoes. Please share this list with your neighbors. #mosquitoes #insects colinpurrington.com/2026/06/10-r...
