Effective trapping of adult mosquitoes in the wild can reduce the spread of deadly human pathogens, such as Plasmodium species causing malaria. The efficacy of this strategy depends on the capacity of the trap to attract and retain insects, and specific odorants such as octenol in mushrooms are strong attractants for mosquitoes. In this study, we assessed the efficiency of a resting box baited with five different extracts from local edible mushrooms, Pleurotus ostreatus, Thaeogyroporus porentosus, Volvariella volvacea, Pleurotus sajorcaju, and Lentinus edodes, for attracting mosquito vectors in Samut Songkhram Province, Thailand. Extracts were used in identical "resting box" at 50, 100, and 200 mg/mL per box. Compared to the unbaited resting box (control), only traps containing 200 mg/mL of L. edodes extract captured significantly more mosquitoes (16.00 ± 3.61 vs. 7.00 ± 1.00 per resting box per night, pandlt;0.05). Attraction efficacy did not increase progressively with tested amount for most extracts. These findings indicate that L. edodes extract can be used as an inexpensive, non-toxic, and locally sourced attractant to increase the efficacy of mosquito control.
在野外有效诱捕成年蚊子可以减少致命人类病原体的传播，例如导致疟疾的疟原虫物种。该策略的有效性取决于诱捕器吸引和留住昆虫的能力，而蘑菇中的特定气味剂如辛烯醇是蚊子的强力引诱剂。在本研究中，我们评估了一种诱蚊盒的效率，该诱蚊盒用来自泰国夜功府当地可食用蘑菇平菇、多孔硫黄多孔菌、草菇、佛罗里达侧耳和香菇的五种不同提取物诱饵，用于吸引蚊虫媒介。提取物以每盒50、100和200毫克/毫升的浓度用于相同的“诱蚊盒”中。与未诱饵的诱蚊盒（对照）相比，只有含有200毫克/毫升香菇提取物的诱捕器捕获的蚊子明显更多（每晚每个诱蚊盒分别为16.00±3.61只和7.00±1.00只，p<0.05）。对于大多数提取物，引诱效果并未随着测试量的增加而逐渐提高。这些发现表明，香菇提取物可以用作一种廉价、无毒且本地可得的引诱剂，以提高蚊虫控制的效果。
