In the 1960s, the World Health Organization (WHO) began a campaign to eradicate the mosquitos that transmit the disease malaria. Before that an organization in Southern Africa had produced a poison to kill these mosquitoes but it wasn’t completely successful. The produced poisons by the WHO kills most members of the insects population leaving only the resistant individuals to reproduce with new genes that somehow enable them to resist the chemical attack. The problems such insects pose are just some of the many ways that evolution has a direct connection to our daily lives considering the adaptations in local environments.
