Höller and Trockel have immersed themselves in an experimental research in communication and social behaviour between mosquitoes and humans. Is any form of communication possible between 'host' and 'guest'? Can the host make it clear to the guest that he is not welcome and that it is not to his own advantage to sting, as there is a good chance that it will die? And what about contamination with AIDS via mosquitoes? Their findings are presented in an old VW-van.
