Warning: this video might give you a case of the creepy crawlies.

According to the description on their YouTube video, MSU researcher Zhiyong Xi and his team are using "mosquito factories" to combat the spread of diseases that mosquitoes are known to spread.

Seems to be successful, too!

Side note: 5 million mosquitoes a WEEK?!?! That's only mildly terrifying.
