Light Barrier Repels Mosquitoes

Yeah. I guess some scientist somewhere determined that some bird eggs had thinner shells in areas treated with DDT, than some other bird eggs in other areas that were not treated with DDT.

IIRC, no attempt was made beyond simple correlation to explain these presumably-valid observations.

And then, -poof-, no more DDT.

But at least we've still got mosquitoes, malaria and bed bugs.
