In a container of water crowded with mosquito larvae, killing only some of them can sometimes result in more adult mosquitoes emerging than would have otherwise. New research on three container-breeding mosquito species details the complex dynamics between changes in larval density and mosquito survival and offers insight into the optimal timing for mosquito-control treatments.
