How to Design Mosquitoes Out of Cities | Cameron Webb | TED
As cities adopt greener, more sustainable designs, there’s risk of a dangerous and unwelcome tenant moving in: mosquitoes. Researcher Cameron Webb explains what urban planners and the general public need to understand about mosquitoes — the deadliest animals on the planet — in order to avoid future outbreaks of disease carried by these pesky insects.…

Stop trying to play god, you have no way of knowing the ecological effects of doing this. I don’t like flees but if we get rid of them we will also get rid of Armadillos and hedgehogs that require flees to survive. What species will we eliminate from our cities because science cannot realize they are not GOD. You cannot create a worm but you still think you are god.
Science needs to operate on the notion that just because you can, does not mean you should.
Because a group scientists didn’t say no to the government years ago, we have Nuclear weapons and now the threat of extinction of humans all because scientists never questioned their actions beyond their abilities. Governments cannot build weapons without scientists, corporations cannot control our existence without science. Now we would still be dying of dysentery without science so its not all bad, but this is where scientists need to ask, SHOULD WE instead of just answering CAN WE.

Learn what’s needed for bat boxes and deploy them if you can or encourage others to.
Don’t let water stagnate or seal it up.

We need to stop trying to live with the pests and find a way to make the food chain work without them. Or at least science should be able to make trap pools of water that attract the laying of eggs but have something that will kill off the eggs and eventually almost eliminate mosquito populations.

What I got from the video is this: We need trees for a greener climate and trees need water. Mosquitos also need water. The water in cities are not clean and therefore causes more mosquuitos. A good solution is to develop strategies that can maintain the purity of the water.
I enjoyed the talk. Good points made 👍🏾

In Florida we were taught that standing, stagnant water breeds mosquitos. Dumping water out of upside down garbage can lids, pots or anything collecting rain was encouraged. Also, to avoid stagnant water, it was recommended to keep stagnant water agitated with bubblers, recirculators, etc. Can Ozzies install little electric bubblers in their rain water catchers? Maybe encourage manufacturers to include them along with screens? Also, the natural gas powered Mosquito Magnet™ was incredible at catching liters of mosquitos in backyards in short order.

If you design highly functioning ecosystems, you will inevitably create dragonfly habitats which are the natural predators of mosquitoes.
Create highly functional urban ecosystems. Stop fighting against nature and nurture it. Will we ever learn this critical lesson?

Good presentation of the solutions but he should look at how singapore handles its mosquito problem, they capture both males and female mosquitoes and inject them with a genetic virus that causes both sexes to be infertile and if they do lay eggs, the offspring will havr defects and die in a matter of minutes
