But until São Tomé has a governing body to whom the team can submit the reams of data it has amassed while studying the country’s ecology and mosquitoes — like the green ones the project tracked across Príncipe — it has no way of knowing if its method will work in the wild. A lab-bred, lab-tested mosquito is not a wild one. Will the team’s modified ones be appealing to potential wild mates? Will they be as successful in finding food and shelter?
