Zika virus has been found to cause a form of brain damage- microcephaly in newborns whose mothers were infected during pregnancy.
Researchers injected laboratory-reared A. aegypti with Zika virus. The mosquitoes were fed, and they started laying eggs after some days.
The researchers collected and incubated the eggs and reared the hatched larvae to adult mosquitoes.
They discovered that the mosquitoes passed viruses on to their offspring, including dengue fever, yellow fever and zika virus.
Keep your environment clean, destroy mosquitoes’ eggs to prevent mosquitoes from breeding and spreading of Zika virus.
