Meet your worst nightmare: Asian tiger mosquito, a formidable carrier of various diseases including West Nile virus. Zooming in on this SEM image reveals every detail on an Asian tiger mosquito's compound eye - nature's engineering marvel. 11-150: Insects may seem small, but their impact can be colossal when it comes to transmitting diseases like West Nile Virus. These tiny creatures play a significant role in spreading this potentially life-threatening infection to humans and animals alike. Mosquitoes have long been recognized as primary culprits responsible for transmitting this viral illness through their bites – they act as vectors carrying and transferring infected blood from one host to another. However, there is more than meets the eye when it comes to disease transmission by insects; enter dark-winged fungus gnats (Sciara militaris). While less known compared to mosquitoes, these flies also possess the ability to spread pathogens such as West Nile Virus.
