Magic Mushroom Effects on Insects

August 25, 2017 by armsworth

There is an August 23, 2017 article in New Scientist about hallucinogenic mushrooms and their insect-repellent properties.  The article mentions work done at Ohio State, and the Matheny Lab helped with the research, particularly former grad student Hailee Korotkin (MS 2017).

There’s a similar article in The Atlantic.
