Anyone in #indianapolis #compost and noticing larvae in your compost? They’re great. Also - can I have some? DM me if you see them - we are using them (black soldier flies) in our research.

It was great to meet Dr. Manuel de Araújo, mayor of Quelimane, and chat about the sanitation and health challenges the city faces. Excited to work together and generate data that can inform decision making. – at Republic of Mozambique

Looks like they are referring to the public toilet index (qssupplies.co.uk/the-public-…). But it's not entirely clear where the underlying data is coming from? Perhaps just Google maps? – at Indiana, USA

Discover which cities and countries have the most and fewest public toilets per 100,000 people. QS Supplies analysed 500+ cities worldwide, including top-ranked Chiang Mai, Zurich, Salt Lake City,...

"Dr.C, I found one crummy looking pinworm egg on the wetmount, but I cannot find anymore after 15 mins to confirm!" UV for the win! Many helmith ova are autofluorescent under broad range excitation filters! This is a standard filter block used for calcofluor white. #parasitology

The pXRF is so cool. Rapid and informative. Thanks @EPdelrio for letting me sit in on the training. And it's nice to know Pb in my mug is below the LOD! – at Indiana, USA

This is disingenous. There have been several attempts at mapping discarded feces in San Francsico (and other cities). The 411 data is still being collected, and I believe publicly available. From experience, that map is almost certainly more than 11 days of data.
