The answer to why mosquitoes are ruling in the near future…
Just now while I was in the bathroom, I saw a pail. And this pail, it’s red in colour. Oh by the way, are mosquitoes attracted to red more then any colour? Ahem. Never mind, this is not going to be another “Why-lightning-don’t-fry-fish” post. Back to where I stopped, this red coloured pail, it contains some water. And in the water, this is what I saw.
Have you seen what I saw? Can you identify what you see? Perhaps you can’t. I should explain it
In the video above, you saw a distinctive tiny-winy black tadpole-like dot gliding around aimlessly – just resembling a comma in the font size of 28. That’s the mosquito pupa itself. And after it swims to the parameter, touching the pail wall, you shall see a worm-like body with a lighter hue of grey, but still itsy-bitsy. That’s the larval of the mosquito. From what I see, the “live” version, aquatic form actually darts around instead of glide. And they are certainly smaller.
I know, bloging about some pupas and larvals at home is no big deal – it’s not as big as seeing lava from my mom when she mimics the eruption of volcano of course. However, when I showed her one of her many masterpieces, she scolded me for making a din.
Just how naturally are we aware about dengue mosquitoes? Not likely, assumption being made from the dengue awareness advertisement seen on TV. If people are aware enough, there wouldn’t be a need of such ad. And also, looking to the opposite block of your HDB flat, do you see people capping the bamboo holes? Or just take a look at your own holes, it is likely to be left open 24/7, just like mine.
After telling my mom about this, she replied.
“Aiyah, I busy mah. You think I as free as you meh? Just leave it there and you can use the water to flush the toilet anytime after your business. After it’s gone, then everything is fine already what!”
Ahem. Fancy flushing toilet bowl with larvals and pupas contaminated water? Hopefully some un-flushed larval feeds on bacterial in the water so that your toilet bowl is cleaner, but with the presence of occasional darting larvals and pupas. So lets say if you manage to flush all the teeny cuties away, does that mean it’s safe? I smell trouble instead. You thought you had escaped from the mosquitoes of the near future, but the fact is that, they are still alive and flying in the Singapore air, ever ready to suck your blood to produce another 40 – 400 white eggs per shot. You not scared ar?
I decided to pour some shampoo into the pail and allow them to suffocate alone. But they just takes up too much of my time. If I was a bit more wiser, I would have scoped them up onto dry surface area and let them die immediately. Haha!
It’s pretty strange why I only saw two pupas and one larval. 40 – 400 eggs were produced each round, remember? Maybe these three were the early bloomers? Or perchance, the rest of the troops were eanten up by this single larval? Likely impossible! Then I also dunno liao.
The eggs takes about 1 to 2 weeks maturing. A bit wasted since the aquatic form looks more attractive then the adult form.
Lizards like mosquitoes, but definitely not inedible pupa and larval.

So did they die in the end?
I'm not relatively sure about that as I flushed them down my bowl. But more or less they had suffered partial suffocation and drank quite some soap water?
