The Fight Against Wild & GM (Genetically Modified) Mosquitoes

Biotech company releases 500M genetically modified mosquitoes into the wild to control the mosquito population. Scientists hope these bugs can help stop the spread of some dangerous viruses over time.

With over 200 species of wild mosquitoes buzzing around America and the U.S. territories. One type that’s common in many parts of the country is the Aedes Aegypti. It can spread diseases like Malaria, Dengue, Zika, Yellow Fever, Mayaro, West Nile and Chikungunya through its bite.

Now if that wasn’t bad enough, scientists have proven that mosquitoes are spreading Buruli Ulcer (Mycobacterium ulcerans infection). Buruli (a flesh eating disease) is a chronic debilitating disease that affects the skin and sometimes bone and can lead to permanent disfigurement and long-term disability.

Mosquitoes Are a Growing Public Health Threat, Reversing Years of Progress. Climate change and the rapid evolution of the insect have helped drive up malaria deaths and brought dengue and other mosquito-borne viruses to places that never had to worry about them — The New York Times

Mosquito activity can vary depending on the specific area and the time of year. In general, mosquitoes are more active during the warmer months, typically from late spring through early fall. However, the exact timing and abundance of mosquitoes can be influenced by several factors, including temperature, precipitation, and local environmental conditions.

To Minimize mosquito encounters and reduce the risk of mosquito-borne diseases, it’s a good idea to take preventive measures such as using the right kind of mosquito repellent, wearing long-sleeved clothing helps, and eliminating sources of standing water around your property, as standing water is where mosquitoes lay their eggs. Additionally, local health authorities and mosquito control agencies often monitor and manage mosquito populations to help mitigate the spread of diseases, but unfortunately the products aren’t working with the rapid expansion of new mosquito and vector-borne species, as they are Immune to Deet and or Citronella.

To Combat mosquitoes, we created BiteRepel and have produced three versions of BiteRepel:

BiteRepel Outdoors - Indoor / Outdoor Home Barrier

BiteRepel Topical - Personal Protection Indoor/ Outdoor

BiteRepel Pets & Livestock – Flea & Tick Prevention.

Culex pipiens u.a.

Dich freut die warme Sonne.Du lebst im Monat Mai.In deiner Regentonne,Da rührt sich allerlei. Viel kleine Tierlein steigenBald auf-, bald niederwärts,Und, was besonders eigen,Sie atmen mit dem Sterz. Noch sind sie ohne Tücken,Rein kindlich ist ihr Sinn.Bald aber sind sie MückenUnd fliegen frei dahin. Sie fliegen auf und niederIm AbendsonnenglanzUnd singen feine LiederBei ihrem…

This is apparently a lost Oneohtrix Point Never/Steve Hauschildt collab under the name “Masqves”; only one track ever came out of it, plus this performance. The track used to be available on OPN’s soundcloud but has since vanished. If anyone has a copy of this recording, please reach out. It’s called “Ocean of Tears”
