Sentence examples for adult vector from inspiring English sources

Similarly, while reducing adult vector emergence and abundance, source reduction of larval habitats may prolong the cycle duration by extending delays in locating oviposition sites.

Alternative strategies which reduce larval abundance and hence adult vector populations [11] [17] may be of great utility in urban areas with high human population densities, particularly those with similarly exophagic vectors.

Adult vector abundance is positively associated with the availability of aquatic habitats necessary for the deposition of eggs, and the areas with highest malaria risk are often found within just a few hundred meters of such larval habitats [13], [14].

To be fully effective, such a method necessitates substantial information on vector ecology, distribution of breeding sites and local environmental conditions and should be combined with insecticidal adult vector control [100].

Density of adult vector mosquitoes.

Depending on the species, adult vector activity generally starts some time in spring.

This is important since only habitats that produce adult vectors contribute to malaria transmission.

If habitats that generate adult vectors could be identified, then LSM might be targeted at these sites [19], [20].

This strategy involves the use of ecological means to reduce the number of productive larval habitats, thereby decreasing the emergence rate of adult vectors.

Furthermore, the evaluation of LSM is based on the presence and/or density of larvae which does not accurately reflect that adult vectors would emerge from these habitats [19].

Use of interventions against the adult vectors within domestic dwellings, such as LLINs or IRS, is minimal.
