INTERACTIVE YOUTH EXHIBIT

Bloodsuckers are invading! Explore the science of what’s biting you! Examine the what, why, when and how of mosquitoes, fleas, ticks, leeches and other parasites. Feel for heat—bloodsuckers need a hot meal! Locate CO2 in your breath that attracts mosquitoes. Find a vein in an arm, and match suckers by their mouth parts. Learn why bloodsuckers are important to the ecosystem—and how to keep them out of YOUR system. Creepy good fun!
