开发收集和监测成年隐蚊的新操作技术被认为是监测和预防虫媒病毒的迫切需要。在这里，我们报告了在泰国2个登革热流行村庄进行的一项试验的结果，该试验比较了粘捕器和CDC双肩吸蚊器收集成年伊蚊的能力，后者已在研究地区常规使用，用于昆虫学/流行病学调查。我们的比较是基于用两种方法进行收集所需的可比抽样努力。采集标本1.9万余份，其中库蚊约占90%。粘捕器采集到的埃及伊蚊和雌性白纹伊蚊明显多于户外双肩吸蚊。粘捕器捕获阳性率为伊蚊的两倍。埃及伊蚊和几乎高出20倍的伊蚊。蚊。根据所获得的结果，讨论了粘性捕集器的操作效益。
Development of new operational techniques for collection and monitoring of adult Stegomyia mosquitoes is considered a pressing need for surveillance and prevention of arboviruses. Here we report the results from a trial carried out in 2 dengue-endemic villages in Thailand to compare the ability to collect Aedes adults of a sticky trap versus a CDC backpack aspirator, which has been used routinely at the study area for entomological/epidemiological surveys. Our comparison was based on a comparable sampling effort required to carry out collections with 2 approaches. Over 19,000 specimens were collected, similar to 90% of which were Culex spp. Sticky traps collected significantly more Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus females than did backpack aspirators when located outdoors. The percentage of positive sticky-trap catches was double for Ae. aegypti and almost 20 times higher for Ae. albopictus. Operational benefits of the sticky trap are discussed within the context of the results obtained.
