Mosquito Larvae

Deactivated: Mosquito Larvae Protocol

In this protocol, students looked for possible mosquito breeding habitats and reported any mosquito larvae they found in the water. They could then sample and count the larvae and try to identify the mosquito type. If possible, students also eliminated the mosquito breeding habitats.
