[pct-l] Mosquitoes and Deet

[David Thibault]

>From article:

Earlier research by the same team found that genetic changes to the same
species of mosquito can make them immune to Deet, although it was not clear
if there were any mosquitoes like this in the wild.


I just hope the ones they are making deet immune are also made sterile -
I'd hate to see these get loose and spread.
