[Mosquito control on selected area in Poland after the flood in 2010].

After the flood in 2010 in many regions of Poland mosquitoes occurred in huge number and chemical control of them was performed. In Legionowo district the aerial application of deltamethrin-containing product was done. In the study the efficacy of the treatments was described. Mosquitoes were caught in CDC traps in five places located in the treated area before treatments, after the 1st and after the 2nd treatments chemical. The chemical control resulted in mean reduction of 53.8% in mosquito numbers after the 2nd treatment (48.1%-57.2%). Efficiency results were much lower than those obtained in control programs realized with the use of microbial control agent. Results obtained indicate, that the integrated mosquito control program should be elaborated for this area, enabling the use of biological and chemical control methods to obtain better efficiency and protection of the environment.
