Meet the 2026 #IgNobel Prize winners

It's that time of year again, when we learn which lucky #scientists are among the winners of the Ig Nobel Prizes. This year, the prizes honor research on designing the perfect splash-free #urinal ; using #mosquito #proboscises to "necroprint" tiny nozzles; studying composition rates of buried cotton #underwear and the #aerodynamics of a healthy nose-blow, among other highlights.

Cada 20 de agosto es el Día Mundial del Mosquito, fecha para conmemorar al médico británico Sir Ronald Ross, que en 1897 demostró que la malaria se transmite a través de la picadura de mosquitos hembra del género Anopheles, un hallazgo que revolucionó la lucha contra esta enfermedad.

I’m not really a cat person anymore… but if I have to choose between the massive patches of #mosquito bites these mosquitoes seem to cause nowadays and having every cat in the neighbourhood chase after me, I’m definitely choosing the cats.

How to build a #mosquito kill bucket

Setting up a #LarvaTrap at home is an effective #MosquitoControl method.

by Debbie Wolfe
Published Jun 18, 2024

Materials

- Container: A five-gallon bucket or a similar-sized container
- Water: Preferably from a rain barrel to avoid chlorinated water
- Organic Material: Straw, hay, or even grass clippings to attract mosquitoes
- Mosquito Dunk: Contains Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bt-i), a bacterium harmful only to mosquito larvae

Directions

Prepare the container
Place the bucket in a sunny spot to keep it warm, accelerating the fermentation process.

Add organic material
Add a handful of organic matter, like leaves, grass clippings or hay to the bucket. This organic material begins to ferment, producing a scent that attracts female mosquitoes.

Add Water
Fill the bucket with water. If using tap water, let it sit for 24-48 hours to allow chlorine to evaporate, or use rainwater.

Let it ferment
Allow the mixture to sit for a few days until it starts to ferment, creating an irresistible breeding ground for mosquitoes.

Add Mosquito Dunk
Once mosquitoes have laid their eggs in the water, add a Mosquito Dunk to the mix. The Bt-i in the dunk will kill the mosquito larvae but leave other insects unharmed.

Place in a shady area
The bucket should be placed in a shady area, or any area where there are frequent issues with mosquitoes.

Maintenance
Regularly check the trap and add fresh water as needed to maintain the level. Replace the dunk every 30 days or as recommended by the manufacturer.

Optional enhancements

Covering: To prevent pets or wildlife from drinking from the mosquito kill bucket, cover it with chicken wire or a similar mesh.
Camouflage: If the bucket’s appearance is a concern, consider using a decorative cover or placing it discreetly under bushes.

Researchers document mosquito species in Puerto Rico that launches eggs aerially, one at a time, into the pools of water that collect between bracts of a plant. See figure 2. Seriously, see figure 2. So cool. #PuertoRico #mosquito #diptera #culex #oviposition #nature #heliconiaceae https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-025-15955-0

Did I say I have #dived the #Bouncing #Bombs in #Lock #Striven near #Dunoon twice now? These are *not* the #Dambusters #Upkeep as deployed by #Lancaster #Bombers, but spherical #Highball bombs deployed by #Mosquito. These were the #RAF tools to sink the #Tirpitz. This was my first trip with the Seahorse #Dive Club with Tom. There are only two Highballs on the surface, #Brooklands and the de Havilland Aircraft Museum. This is a true underwater #museum!

#MastodonMosquitoMoment This wartime photograph shows a number of DH Mosquito B. Mk IV lined up, prior to a daylight raid on an enemy target in Europe. The B.Mk. IV was the first bomber version of the Mosquito to enter service with the Royal Air Force, and these aircraft are from No. 139 Squadron, RAF, the second unit to be equipped with the Mosquito bomber. Initially used on daring daylight raids, the bomber versions of the Mosquito had no defensive armament, and relied on sheer speed to evade enemy fighters. The People's Mosquito is restoring a fighter-bomber version of the famed Mosquito in the UK. #RAF #RoyalAirForce #bomber #BomberCommand #DeHavilland #Mosquito #WW2 #history #Europe #aircraft #avgeek #TPM #ThePeoplesMosquito #UK

@GRossSharp #MastodonMosquitoMoment Here's a Mosquito Anopheles. This #WW2 fighter-BWMD was a most versatile member of the #Mosquito genus. The Mosquito was prevalent during WW2 & post-war in #GreatBritain #USA #France #Israel #Norway #Belgium #Australia #NewZealand #Poland and others. #history #insects #botany #warfare #malaria #btgeek A Mosquito Anopheles is currently being destroyed to non-flight status by The People's Racquet (Electric).

#MastodonMosquitoMoment Here is an example of the DH Mosquito FB.VI. This #WW2 fighter-bomber was the most versatile member of the #Mosquito family.
