Insects: The Unsung Hero of War
Insects are among the most well-known carriers of disease and have played a pivotal, even decisive, role in many battles throughout history. For example, during the Haitian Revolution in the early 19th century, French soldiers contracted malaria, transmitted by mosquitoes. France lost the battle, meaning that mosquitoes were the soldiers who decided the outcome.
