Abstract/Contents: | "Modern mosquito control involves integration of a variety of methods to achieve the single end of preventing mosquito bites, and can be done in an environmentally-acceptable manner through the use of physical methods, biological controls, and appropriate and judicious application of insecticides. A knowledge of the different kinds of mosquitoes in Michigan is essential if they are to be controlled using the integrated pest management philosophy. The purpose of this presentation is to provide you with the basic facts about biology and control of pest mosquitoes in Michigan. Because of limitations on time, I will forego a discussion of the role of mosquitoes in Michigan as carriers or 'vectors' of disease agents. However, the reader should be aware that a variety of mosquito-borne diseases occur in Michigan, such as dog heartworm and eastern equine encephalitis." |
