A water soluble, fluorescent pigment was aerially applied to caged Culex quinquefasciatus adults in a south Louisiana marshland pasture. Mosquitoes held in cages on 1 m stakes were greater than 90% marked. This number was significantly greater (P less than 0.01) than the number of marked mosquitoes held in cages that were placed in dense vegetation (greater than or equal to 0.5 m high) near the ground surface (70% marked). In a second aerial test with caged Aedes sollicitans in an open, grassy area of the marshland pasture, the pigment marked 100% of the adult mosquitoes held in cages 1 m above the ground and 98% of the caged mosquitoes on the ground surface. Greater than 96% of the adults collected from an emerging population of Ae. sollicitans within the test area were marked as well as 100% of wild caught deer fly adults, Chrysops flavidus complex, in the test area.
一种水溶性荧光色素被空中喷洒在路易斯安那州南部沼泽地牧场中关有致倦库蚊成虫的笼子上。放置在1米高木桩上笼子里的蚊子有超过90%被标记。这个数字显著高于（P小于0.01）放置在靠近地面的茂密植被（高度大于或等于0.5米）中笼子里被标记蚊子的数量（70%被标记）。在沼泽地牧场一片开阔草地进行的第二次空中试验中，用笼子关着骚扰伊蚊，该色素标记了地面上方1米处笼子里100%的成年蚊子以及地面笼子里98%的蚊子。从试验区一个新出现的骚扰伊蚊种群中采集的成年蚊子超过96%被标记，试验区野生捕获的黄腹斑虻属成年虻（Chrysops flavidus complex）100%被标记。
