WSST Conference 2023

It is doubtful that any critter on the planet receives as much loathing per gram as the mosquito. We spend enormous amounts of time, money, and resources trying to eradicate—or at least control—local populations of this common insect. Despite this, most people know very little about mosquitoes—where they come from, how they live, and the roles they play in our environment. This series of lessons and labs gets students interested and excited about our little Dipteran friends. Learn about mosquitoes and their lifestyles, their roles ecologically, and how to use them effectively in the classroom.
