利用光电传感器设计了一种新型的自动记录蚊子寻找宿主行为的装置。在实验室条件下记录了几种蚊虫的寄主搜索节律。除了加热和黑色以激活蚊子飞行之外，使用CO2被证明对于评估本记录装置是重要的。白纹伊蚊（Skuse）、埃及伊蚊（L.）该装置记录的致倦库蚊、三带喙库蚊和斯氏按蚊雌蚊的飞行和活动节律与野外已知的同类蚊种的飞行和活动节律吻合良好。这种简单的自动记录装置提供了准确的信息，对殖民地和现场收集的蚊子的飞行行为。
A new automatic device for recording the host-seeking behavior of mosquitoes was designed using photoelectric sensors. The host-seeking rhythms of several species of mosquitoes were recorded under laboratory conditions. Use of CO2, in addition to heating and black color to activate mosquito flight, proved to be important for evaluation of the present recording device. The diel rhythms of nonblood-fed Aedes albopictus (Skuse), Aedes aegypti (L.), Culex quinquefasciatus Say, Culex tritaeniorhynchus Giles and Anopheles stephensi Liston females recorded by the device corresponded well with known flight and activity rhythms in field for the same mosquito species. This simple automatic recording device provided accurate information on the flight behaviors of colonized and field collected mosquitoes.
