Records of Aedes Mosquitoes Collected in the United States Air Force Ovitrapping Program - CY 2000

Abstract

During CY 2000, a total of 619 ovipositon paddles were submitted to AFIERA/RSRH by 13 USAF installations in CONUS. Container-breeding Aedes mosquitoes were detected at almost all installations where surveillance was conducted. Because these mosquitoes are serious pests and may transmit pathogenic viruses, all installations in the eastern half of CONUS should include ovitraps in their surveillance programs.
