Dear colleagues, partners, and friends,

it has been a while, but recently some of our contacts again received e-mails trying to lure them into a scam. As before, these messages pretend  to be from Biogents staff or management.

Remote Sensing and On-Site Characterization of Wetlands as Potential Habitats for Malaria Vectors

Insect-borne diseases are an ongoing threat to public health. Among other common known diseases, malaria is still a worldwide health problem and also of relevance in colder regions. The spread of this disease is currently supported by the increase of wetland areas, environmental change, warming, a decrease of pesticide use and an overall mosquito import via travel. That’s why HNU’s DigiHealth Institute and Biogents combine natural and health science methods to identify potential future mosquito risk areas in the new research project "Swammp" (Swabian Mosquito Monitoring Project).

Dear all,

I made a disturbing discovery!

You already know that our neighbors have one of these Biogents BG-Mosquitaire mosquito traps and over there you can hardly find a tiger mosquito anymore. Yesterday I made a short trip to my landlords' house to have a blood meal. And what did I see there?

Queridos amigos,

¡Acabo de hacer un descubrimiento perturbador!

Ya sabeis que nuestros vecinos tienen una de estas trampas para mosquitos Biogents BG-Mosquitaire y allí ya casi no se puede encontrar un mosquito tigre. Ayer hice un viaje corto a la casa de los propietarios para chupar sangre. ¿Y qué vi allí?

Amici,

Ho fatto una scoperta inquietante!

Come già sapete, I nostri vicini hanno una di queste trappole Biogents BG-Mosquitaire e laggiù è quasi impossibile trovare una zanzara tigre. Ieri ho fatto un giro dai miei padroni di casa per uno spuntino e cosa vedo lì?
