Comparing Zika-Carrying Mosquitoes by RoseWrites Poster
A handy poster to help identify the key differences between Aedes and Culex mosquitoes. Discounts apply when you purchase more than three posters.
Eradication methods differ greatly for controlling Aedes and Culex mosquitoes, so it's crucial that health departments and the public are aware of these mosquitoes and their behaviours.
Other reasons I felt compelled to design this fact sheet:
Roger Nasci (formerly of the CDC) felt controlling Culex would "divert resources from the important efforts to control the primary vector". (Source: http://www.newsweek.com/how-zika-virus-could-make-its-way-north-507085)
The study "Differential Susceptibilities of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus [tiger mosquitoes] from the Americas to Zika Virus" (published March 3, 2016) states: "... although susceptible to infection, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus were unexpectedly low competent vectors for the Zika virus."
May 2016, Dr. Constancia Ayres et al. found collected more than 1500 mosquitoes and tested them for the presence of Zika and other viruses. Nearly half were Aedes aegypti and most of the rest were Culex quinquefasciatus, a common mosquito. Roughly 5 percent were other species ... Aedes albopictus only made up about 2 percent of the catch. (Source: http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2016/05/top-mosquito-suspect-found-infected-zika)
Note: I will contribute 20 percent of my royalties from every sale of this poster in support of Zika research.

My Bible verse postcard, turned out excellent. I love it and have it already framed. It was so reasonably priced for something done so well. Thank you to Zazzle and the artist! I thought it looked exactly like what I ordered. Perfect.

Nice poster with all the 48 high peaks of New-Hampshire. Just need to put a little sticker when you hiked them.
Also got the ADK46 poster... Super well printed, great quality paper and colors.
Nothing is blured. All vivid colors.

The poster was made for my son’s baptism and it looked so beautiful on the cake table for the reception! Great quality and looked amazing in a simple white frame.
