Science (Biology): What's the worst bug on the planet? How about the Mosquito?

Ted-Ed, does an excellent job teaching scientific concepts visually and easy to understand for students of all ages.  In this particular science video, we see how a mosquito behaves, a little bit about the history of mosquitoes, and the possible side effects from a mosquito's bite or sting.  The information is great and I think your students would enjoy knowing what are some possibilities if we were to actually eliminate all mosquitoes in the world.

If you are teaching a science lesson on parasites, then this video would be a good one to introduce the blood sucking mosquito.
