Blowflies are first responders to death β but can they sense a thermobaric blast aftermath?
π§ The Insect Radar:
- Flies are attracted to burnt tissue, shockwave wounds, and charred remains.
- They detect chemical signals in milliseconds, landing within minutes of calm after chaos.
β±οΈ Fast Clues:
- Blowfly arrival time can help estimate when the blast occurred.
- Multiple entry points = pressure trauma. Insect patterns reflect blast geometry!
π¨ Entomological Intelligence:
- Blowfly larvae on victims may indicate pre- or post-explosion injuries β essential in conflict zone forensics.
Where satellites fail, the blowfly testifies. πͺ°π§¬
