Preoccupies the appearance of a new invasive species of mosquitoes in Florida

While the very moderate (or non-existent) cases are flooding Florida due to high temperatures, a problem that seems to be happening again this year: los mosquitoes.

But in this 2021, marked by the COVID-19 pandemic, the scientific community predicted the appearance of a new type of mosquito that does not live in the safe state and which can be a vector that transmits infectious diseases.

Se trata del Aedes Scapularis, identified by the first time in the Everglades zone (a natural pantyhose park that occupies the entire center of the Florida Peninsula) by Florida University entomologist and investigator Lawrence Reeves.

Reeves is dedicated to collecting mosquitoes in this area and analyzing them. Its miles of insects that capture gracefully in a senseless technique: cocoa helium seco, which emits carbon dioxide, mimicking the odors of humans and other mammals that attract mosquitoes. Once you have your sample, leave it to each insect or the microscope for analyzers. To use unique features in a variety of collectible samples, Reeves decided to make DNA samples. Indeed, it has been confirmed that the Aedes Scapularis, a species established in the states of Florida, Miami-Dade and Broward, was established..

Hasta now, what is known about this species is that it transmits a large variety of diseases that from Venezuela’s encephalitis equine to amarilla fever. This type of mosquito is common in the Caribbean and Latin America, especially in Brazil, where it has been speculated to be the origin of various types of infectious diseases.

The good news is that it has been confirmed that this mosquito species grows a large variety of animals, do not know if you are aware of the ability to save these viruses. But in a region where years later it has been extremely affected by the Zika and the dengue, always attracts the appearance of new mosquitoes. As far as the coast is concerned, it is not uncommon for mosquitoes to migrate from the south of Florida to the north of the Atlantic coast and the Gulf coast.

The other hecho preoccupied with Aedes Scapularis is that can live in the interior and have the ability to eat as much of salvage animals as human beings. Scientific materials show that the origin of the COVID is some type of insect with the ability to bite humans and mortars.

Globalization and the climatic change have shown that this type of invasive species migrates from one site to another. Since el año 2000 in Florida, he has had the ten latest species of mosquitoes without births.

The problem is clearly not new, because the conditions like Miami-Dade have a constant smoking policy that is being increased in the spring for the time of year. Trucks that smoke on the wide and wide side of the air, air conditioning from airplanes and constant investigation are part of the millionaire program approved decades later in the zone. In addition, there are education campaigns for the people to avoid that the people will catch cats in the ones that can generate water (the main focus is on reproducing the mosquitoes). Pero with a pant of more than six million acres, comoson the Everglades, hay brotes inevitably.

Last year, Miami-Dade and the Monroe district (where the famous cayos of Florida are located) report cases of infections with the Nile virus, transmitted by mosquitoes and presumably eradicated.

To those living in the area, there is the possibility that there will be an unusual accumulation of mosquitoes in the reports of intermediates in the works of the free telephone line 311, or in the web page of the Miami-Dade county.
