Save the Mosquitoes! (2016) watch online HD

Director Greg St. Pierre's Nissan Frontier was used as the mosquito sprayer. He drove it himself in the protest scene out of safety concerns as it needed to pass close to the actors' feet.

The mosquito sprayer truck took some time to achieve the desired effect and and wasn't finished until the night before it was needed.

On the first day of shooting, the director's actress sister surprised him on set. Some of the crew had arranged for her to be flown in. She was used in the scene.

The opening interviews were entirely improvised.

Acting debut of sports announcer Paul Van Scott, who plays the off camera interviewer and also appears uncredited as a protester.

The interview scene was done via guerrilla filmmaking. Desperate for a quiet office location, the filmmakers paid an office building's custodian to let them film inside during off hours. For obvious reasons the custodian declined a film credit.

Director Greg St. Pierre's first time filming out of sequence.

Two mosquito models were built from kits for the interview scene. One was the "stunt" mosquito while other was a backup. The models were extremely delicate so the director lay out of frame to catch them when knocked off by the actor. The impact sound was added in post production.

To give the protest scene an authentic feel, the signs displayed by the extras in the protest scene were designed by the extras themselves. The director asked them to create the signs several weeks before shooting.

The scene of the protesters lying on the road and being sprayed with insecticide was filmed in ninety degree temperatures. As the mosquito sprayer truck was of course spraying water, the actors had little objection to several takes.

Angel Lopez appears as the blind protester. Despite being nearly completely blind in real life, Angel is a graphic designer and animation artist and created a short animation for the Save the Mosquitoes teaser trailer. The director asked him if he wanted to be in the film, to which he eagerly agreed. On set Angel asked one of the extras to show him to the bathroom. The extra thought he was joking and that Angel's sunglasses and cane were just props. They weren't.

Received a Best Comedy nomination at the Melbourne Independent Filmmakers Festival in Melbourne Florida.
