Several parameters on the oviposition site preference of Aedes albopictus were studied, including color, container type, salinity, and water type. Dark-colored glass jars, especially black, blue, and red ones were preferred over light-colored jars. The black-colored ovitrap with a paper strip performed better than other types of containers. Seasoned tap water had the highest egg count when compared with a saline water series. In addition, water that had previously been used for the culture of Ae. albopictus was the most preferred for oviposition. The significance of this study in conjunction with the present Aedes mosquito surveillance and monitoring program is discussed.
研究了白纹伊蚊产卵场所偏好的几个参数，包括颜色、容器类型、盐度和水质类型。深色玻璃罐，尤其是黑色、蓝色和红色的玻璃罐比浅色玻璃罐更受青睐。带有纸条的黑色诱卵器比其他类型的容器表现更好。与一系列盐水相比，经过调味的自来水的卵数量最多。此外，先前用于白纹伊蚊培养的水是最受产卵青睐的。讨论了本研究与当前伊蚊监测和监测计划相结合的意义。
