In an unusual study, scientists found that electronic music could be afraid of mosquitoes. The results of the experiment were led in the Acta Tropica Science magazine.
Research shows that Dubstep was most feared most effectively. For experiments, scientists have chosen mosquitoes of the Aedes Aegypti (mosquito -mosquito) and turn on them to watch scary monsters and beautiful monsters from famous American musicians under the pen name Skrillex.
The researchers explained.
Mosquito behavior changes under the influence of large electronic rhythms. Because of this, insects began to attack people less, and those who are still at risk did it with a strong delay. The number of bites decreased many times compared to conventional conditions.
At the same time, such music also violates marriage and mosquitoes becoming less positive in mating.
This opens up new opportunities to create anti -sound drugs, the authors write study.
The researchers continuously studied the behavior of these insects and were sick. In the spring, Australian scientists have warned of “the new brain infection”. The country has recorded the case of the second Japanese encephalitis transmitted through the bite of mosquitoes And it can lead to death.
