Baseline field studies were conducted from April 1987 to July 1988 on Aedes aegypti in Santo Domingo, an endemic area for dengue fever. Premise, container and Breteau indices were measured in one treated area and 2 nearby control areas. These indices averaged 69.6, 46.3 and 142.1, respectively. The principal larval habitats of Ae. aegypti were 208-liter (55-gal) concrete-lined drums. The estimated daily adult production was approximately 60 per house. Adult mosquito populations were monitored using oviposition traps and by sweep net collections. There was no correlation between adult abundance and the larval indices. Monitoring the natural adult densities was more efficient for evaluating the impact of ULV malathion application than the use of standard bioassay procedures.
1987年4月至1988年7月，在登革热流行地区圣多明各对埃及伊蚊进行了基线现场研究。在一个处理区和两个附近的对照区测量了房屋指数、容器指数和布雷托指数。这些指数的平均值分别为69.6、46.3和142.1。埃及伊蚊的主要幼虫栖息地是208升（55加仑）的混凝土衬砌桶。估计每户每天产生的成虫约为60只。使用产卵诱捕器和扫网收集法对成蚊种群进行监测。成虫数量与幼虫指数之间没有相关性。监测自然成虫密度比使用标准生物测定程序更能有效地评估超低容量马拉硫磷喷洒的效果。
