A lethal ovitrap‐based mass trapping scheme for dengue control in Australia: I. Public acceptability and performance of lethal ovitraps [PDF]

open access: yesMedical and Veterinary Entomology, 2009
Abstract We report on the first field evaluation of the public acceptability and performance of two types of lethal ovitrap (LO) in three separate trials in Cairns, Australia. Health workers were able to set standard lethal ovitraps (SLOs) in 75 and 71% of premise yards in the wet and dry season, respectively, and

A Biodegradable Lethal Ovitrap for Control of Container-Breeding Aedes

open access: yesJournal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2008
Lethal ovitraps (LO) have been successfully deployed in dengue control operations in north Queensland, Australia since 2004. However, the current plastic-bucket LO must be retrieved before the pesticide-treated strip degrades and the trap begins producing mosquitoes. The logistics involved with trap retrieval are considerable and include recording trap

Building a better ovitrap for detecting Aedes aegypti oviposition

Acta Tropica, 2005
0 002). Aedes aegypti, the main dengue vector in the mericas, is a highly adapted container breeder. In any dengue-endemic countries, A. aegypti tend to reed in water storage containers and any variety of ssorted water-holding containers found in and around omes. Surveys of A.

A Novel Autocidal Ovitrap for the Surveillance and Control of Aedes aegypti [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2013
We describe an inexpensive autocidal ovitrap for Aedes aegypti that uses cross-linked polyacrylamide (PAM) gel as the oviposition substrate. Aedes aegypti females readily laid eggs on PAM gel that had been hydrated with either hay infusion or water. Aedes aegypti larvae that hatched from their eggs desiccated on the surface of the PAM gel.

Field evaluation of a lethal ovitrap against dengue vectors in Brazil

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 2003
Abstract. Field evaluation of a ‘lethal ovitrap’ (LO) to control dengue vector Aedes mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae), was undertaken in two Brazilian municipalities, Areia Branca and Nilopolis, in the State of Rio de Janeiro.

Applicability of the Mexican ovitrap system for Aedes vector surveillance in Colombia

Pathogens and Global Health, 2022
Ovitraps can detect Aedes vectors at an early stage and can serve as an alarm indicator for outbreak prediction. This study aimed to summarize the available literature about the ovitrap system and to determine its feasibility, required resources and costs when installing and maintaining this vector surveillance system in the municipality of Los Patios,

Laboratory testing of a lethal ovitrap for Aedes aegypti

Medical and Veterinary Entomology, 1999
Summary Laboratory tests were conducted to determine the feasibility of making the mosquito ovitrap lethal to Aedes aegypti (L.) when they attempt to oviposit in the trap.

Efficient All‐Life‐Cycle Ovitrap for Effective Aedes ( Stegomyia ) aegypti (Linnaeus, 1762) (Diptera: Culicidae) Control With Low Operational Costs

open access: yesPsyche: Journal of Entomology
Dengue fever and other mosquito‐borne diseases pose significant public health threats, often exacerbated by limitations in traditional control methods. This study introduces a novel, low‐cost, and easy‐to‐manage all‐life‐cycle ovitrap (ALO), designed specifically for Aedes aegypti control, offering a sustainable, pesticide‐free alternative to chemical ...
