STEP 1: Gathering Smoke. A bottle of volume 200ml was used. I manually gathered smoke from the coil as you see in the photo. The bottle got fogged with the smoke, when an ample amount of smoke got in it.
STEP 2: Recruiting Volunteers.Ten altruistic mosquitoes agreeded to voluntarily participate in the experiment.
Without calling for, they swarmed around me. I asked them to wait for their turns in the net.
STEP 3: Recording Results.The moquitoes, one by one, were asked to enter the bottle filled with smoke. I recorded time for them to perish in the gas chamber. I refilled smoke for the each trial in order to keep the smoke condition uniform.
Next post will report the result and discuss it. See you tomorrow.

What about sample selection bias?? Maybe the altruistic mosquitoes were actually suicidal and had ingested some sort of toxic chemical beforehand? How do you know that they were otherwise healthy?
Surely no well-reputed journal would accept this crap.
>How do you know that they were otherwise healthy?
Entomological knowledge tells us that only female mosquitoes swarm around humans to suck blood. They need blood to lay eggs. This means that the participants were nonvirgin. This means that they were sexually active. This further means that they were healthy enough to lay with guys. Strong logic, isn't it?
>this crap.
Better than your thesis.
