you know the old tale that animals and insects can predict earthquakes and disasters, and in the modern science, they are sensitive to the magnetic field of the earth? We recorded a sharp drop in mosquitoes trappings on the two days of the Pandang earthquake and then slowly back to normal. Maybe it is true that insects can detect changes in the magnetic field, but can only confirm when the next earthquakes happens, hopefully from far away.
