The Field Assessment of Quiescent Egg Populations of and during the Dry Season in Tapachula, Chiapas, Mexico, and Its Potential Impact on Vector Control Strategies.

Although integrated management and control programs implement intense control measures for adult, pupal, larval, and breeding sites during outbreaks, there is a lack of studies to understand the role of the vector egg stage in disease dynamics. This study aimed to assess the dry season quiescent and egg populations in houses and backyards in Tapachula, southern Mexico. Two hundred and fifty ovitraps were placed in 125 homes in the Las Americas neighborhood.

Design and Evaluation of a Sticky Attractant Trap for Intra-Domiciliary Surveillance of Populations in Mexico.

Surveillance consists of systematic data collection, analysis, and interpretation and is essential for planning and implementing control activities. The lack of success in the control and surveillance of the mosquito elsewhere demands the development of new accessible and effective strategies. This work aimed to develop and evaluate an adhesive lure trap for household indoor surveillance of .

[Response of Aedes aegypti L. (Diptera: Culicidae) to transfluthrin and linalool impregnated in different of fabric types.].

Objective: Evaluate the effect of spatial repellency against Ae. aegypti of two chemical compounds impregnated in different types of fabrics.

Materials And Methods: The study was carried out in the year 2015-2016 in the Centro Regional de Investigación en Salud Pública, del Instituto Nacional de Salud Pública.

Spatial repellency and other effects of transfluthrin and linalool on Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus.

In the present study, the effects of two spatial repellents (SR) were determined for Aedes aegypti and Ae albopictus, the main vectors of dengue, Chikungunya, and Zika fever. The modular high-throughput screening system (HITSS) was used to evaluate the response of both species to transfluthrin and linalool SR at different concentrations. The highest spatial repellency results for Ae.
