The University of Maryland has a solution, but we’re a little leery of. It genetically modified a fungus with Australian spider venom. Don’t get me wrong: it works. It kills mosquitoes better than pesticides do. The problem is, what else might it do? It kills mosquitoes, but what if it also messes with bees? Or has some other unintended consequences? So this won’t be sprayed freely for now.

The clearwater police department in florida was called out to investigate an unusual break-in. An 11-foot alligator was discovered inside a home.
