Ultra-low-volume space sprays in mosquito control: a critical review.
The availability of tools to control mosquito (Diptera:Culicidae) vectors that transmit disease is often limited by a variety of economic, environmental and social issues. In emergency conditions (epidemics, hurricanes, floods etc.), the application of pesticides as space sprays (either by ground or air) is the common method of choice in order to rapidly limit adult local mosquito production in...
متن کاملA review of ultralow-volume aerial sprays of insecticide for mosquito control.
This review of research on ultralow-volume (ULV) aerial sprays for mosquito control is a component of an Aerial SPray EXpert system (ASPEX). Topics include application volume, adulticiding, larviciding, droplet size, and meteorology. The review discusses the efficacy of ULV aerial sprays against many important pest and vector species of mosquitoes in a wide range of locations and habitats in th...
متن کاملSamplers for evaluation and quantification of ultra-low volume space sprays.
A field study was conducted to explore the suitability of 5 pesticide deposition samplers for airborne spray and ground deposits from ultra-low-volume (ULV) space sprays. Samplers included horizontally stretched stationary cotton ribbons at 2 heights, rotating ribbon, rotating Teflon slides, and filter paper. Slides were also used for droplet-size analysis. A set of 7 samplers of each type was ...

متن کاملThe control of Aedes aegypti in South-east Asia and the Western Pacific.
Space sprays for the control of adult mosquito populations are widely used by mosquito control groups throughout the world both for the pest and vector species. In the South-East Asia and Western Pacific regions, adulticiding is especially used to control vectors during epidemic outbreaks of mosquito-borne arboviruses such as dengue and Japanese encephalitis. Space sprays may be applied as ther...
