Clashing in Murky Waters: On Amphibian Mosquito Suppression. [PDF]
This study compares the predator efficiency of common European amphibian species to common invertebrate mosquito predators. Focusing on the cosmopolitan mosquito Culex pipiens, known for transmitting pathogens like West Nile virus, we assessed predator rates, sex‐specific efficiency in amphibians, and the impact of predator presence on mosquito ...

Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes do not support replication of Zika virus [PDF]
The rapid spread of Zika virus (ZIKV) in the Americas raised many questions about the role of Culex quinquefasciatus mosquitoes in transmission, in addition to the key role played by the vector Aedes aegypti.

Field Testing of Different Chemical Combinations as Odour Baits for Trapping Wild Mosquitoes in The Gambia [PDF]
Odour baited traps have potential use in population surveillance of insect vectors of disease, and in some cases for vector population reduction. Established attractants for human host-seeking mosquitoes include a combination of CO2 with L-lactic acid ...

Avian malaria co-infections confound infectivity and vector competence assays of Plasmodium homopolare. [PDF]
Currently, there are very few studies of avian malaria that investigate relationships among the host-vector-parasite triad concomitantly. In the current study, we experimentally measured the vector competence of several Culex mosquitoes for a newly ...

Advanced Techniques to Control Mosquitoes and their Disease Transmission: A Review
Mosquitoes transmit life-threatening diseases to humans. The conventional mosquito control techniques that have been focused on population reduction by the application of insecticides or through source reduction by removing the larval habitat have become
