Repellents on Cloth. Each candidate repellent is applied to a knit cotton stocking or doth patch at 3.3 g/m2 doth, usually as a 1% solution of active ingredient (AI) in acetone. Two hours later, the stock or doth patch is placed over an untreated nylon stocking on the arm of a subject, the hand covered, and the arm exposed to 1500 female mosquitoes for one minute. If fewer than five bites are counted, the test is repeated at 24 h, then weekly until failure, which is, by definition, five bites per minute. The standard mosquitoes used are Aedes aegypti, Anopheles quadrimaculatus, or A. albimanus. Candidate repellents in doth tests are in one of the following dasses dass 1, effective 0 d dass 2,1—5 d dass 3, 6—10 d dass 4, 11—21 d and dass 5, >21 d. 

Mohanty et al. (2008) studied the efficacy of the virulent M. anisopliae strain 892 -isolated from Pyrausta nubilalis - against mosquito larvae. LC50 values of M. anisopliae 892 for Culex quinquefasciatus, Anopheles stephensi and Aedes aegypti were examined. M. anisopliae 892 was found to cause approximately 50% mortality of C. quinquefasciatus 4 days post inoculation. The production of subtilisin-like (Prl) and trypsin-like protease (Pr2) was measured in the presence of certain inducers. Significant differences in the production of Prl and Pr2 were found following the addition of inducers i.e. cuticles of the three...

The presence of competent mosquito vectors [Ae. aegypti and Anopheles quadrimacalatus) and of recent immigrants from the Caribbean Islands and Latin America raised the possibility of dengue and malaria transmission in Florida. Because mosquito-based surveillance for St. Louis encephalitis (SLE) is unable to detect these diseases, fliers with information on identification and reporting of dengue and malaria were distributed to health care workers in the area. No dengue or malaria cases were reported to the Florida Department of Health and Rehabilitative Services.

Olyset net and polyethylene net treated with permethrin at 0.5g per m were washed four times with soap and water, then subjected to a 10 min contact bioassay using females of Aedes aegypti and Anopheles maculatus. The mortalities oiAe. aegypti and An. maculatus were 90.3 and 86.7%, respectively, for Olyset net, and 5 and 3.3%, respectively, for polyethylene net after the 4th washing (Table II),.
