I for one am willing and eager to watch anything that will kill a mosquito, and the more the better.
This sure is one heck opf a cool way to get the job done, though.

That was unique. I like this one guys comment on CNet's site.
Mother Nature can adapt to a lot of different things ... like pesticides, for example.
