Think all mosquitoes are the same? Think again! There are over 40 species of mosquitoes in Arizona, and they have different personalities. This browse table will highlight ongoing research at the UofA that is studying where in Tucson mosquitoes like to spend their time. Stop by to learn about trapping, identifying, and researching mosquitoes in our area. Activities include demonstrations of mosquito trapping, mosquito specimens that can be viewed under magnifying glasses, coloring and crosswords for kids, and some useful info that might help you figure out which mosquitoes are in your yard, and how to get rid of them!.
