Can mosquitoes get drunk?
« on: 07/07/2016 14:50:01 »
Donald piniach asked the Naked Scientists:
   Can mosquitos get drunk? Suppose they get blood from a passed out intoxicated football fan with a blood alcohol content of 0.20%, could they still fly? Can every organism with a brain get drunk?
What do you think?
