A Hyper-Local Picture of Species Susceptibility

Historically, resistance has been believed to be a regional or district-wide issue, but the U.S. Zika outbreak taught us how to consider mosquito populations at a block-by-block level. And from our work understanding and treating container-breeding species, the Susceptibility 评估ment Mapping (SAM™) service was born.

Hga010皇冠软件下载’s SAM service offers our customers neighborhood-by-neighborhood insights into the susceptibility of their local mosquito population against various control products.

SAM™ 服务: The True Picture of Species Susceptibility

It follows a simple, six-step process:

1. 评估

Working from any historical surveillance data available, we’ll begin to understand the species mix of your district, plus any variabilities that impact populations.

2. Select

Various sites are selected for larvae and/or egg collection that best reflect the species mix of your district.

3. 收集

Eggs and/or larvae are collected and overnighted to our lab or a third-party partner.

4. 后

F1 and F2 generations of each species collected are reared by the lab.

5. 分析

同时, the lab uses susceptible lab colony species to conduct bottle bioassay studies on the adulticide product(s) of your choice. This is done to determine the diagnostic dose (DD) and diagnostic time (DT) for each species on each product. Then, the F2 species will be tested following the same methodology.

6. 报告

For each product formulation tested, the time to 100% mortality is compared between the susceptible lab species and the field species.

Interpreting SAM™ Data

SAM offers a quick and efficient way to understand the relative performance between products used across your district. We recommend it be used as an annual monitoring tool for susceptibility levels within your population.

然而, SAM is not a definitive tool to determine if your local mosquito population has resistance issues. If you identify any yellow flags in the data results, your best course of action is to do a formal field trial. Hga010皇冠软件下载能帮上忙.

Late Summer Mosquito Control: What to Expect

Late summer is often when the presence of mosquito-borne diseases like West Nile Virus (WNV) upticks rapidly, thanks to ideal weather conditions (regular rainfall, 湿度, and warm air temperatures) for mosquito breeding.

Controlling Mosquito Larvae in Water: The Basics on Mosquito 杀幼虫剂

According to the Joint Statement on Mosquito Control in the United States from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the U.S. Centers of Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), “…The greatest control impact on mosquito populations will occur when they are concentrated, immobile and accessible.”

Mosquito Control is “So Much More Than Spraying”

Taking a more holistic approach to mosquito control is essential for optimal results. Just using spray treatments is not enough.
