Three out of four soaps made the mosquitoes increase their interest in the people who washed themselves, shows a new study which reproduced in The Guardian.
According to the researchers, the explanation may be that the soaps are perfumed and remind mosquitoes of nectar, something they have as an alternative source of nutrition to blood.
However, the fourth soap – scented with coconut – made the mosquitoes recoil. It is explained by the fact that coconut oil is naturally repellent to mosquitoes.

To what extent do all these fires that have ravaged the world in recent years contribute? Have they caused us to get further from the climate target with emissions?
Carina
Hello! Partially. The fires release large amounts of carbon from the vegetation in the form of carbon dioxide, which in turn further increases global warming.
Why does Russia celebrate a Victory Day from 1945? The Russian Federation was formed in 1991 and has nothing to do with WWII. At the time, Russia was only a state in the Soviet Union.

Victory Day began to be celebrated in Russia after the fall of Nazi Germany in 1945. In fact, after the fall of the Soviet Union, the parades stopped for a while. But in 1995 the celebration was resumed again.
Danny Saucedo isn’t making his acting debut now is he? Wasn’t he in Evil?
Ninna
Entirely correct! He was an extra in the fight scene in Ondskan.
However, he himself says that “Scenes from a Marriage” is his acting debut. Maybe he himself makes a difference between extras and acting?
Regardless – well done Ninna!
Which party in Sweden is the 9th largest?
Lisbeth
Hello!
The largest party outside the Riksdag, i.e. the ninth largest party, is the Nyans party. They received 28,352 votes, which is equivalent to 0.44 percent of the turnout in the 2022 election.
In the 2018 and 2014 elections, the Feminist initiative was the largest, but they have retreated significantly and were in this election at 0.05 percent.
Shouldn’t journalists be able to tell the difference between them and them?
