Profile distribution of juvenile Aedes species in an urban area of Malaysia.

Abstract：

BACKGROUND:Dengue fever (DF) is an urban vector-borne disease transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. Both species deposit their eggs in favorable breeding sites either in natural or artificial containers. An understanding of their habitat characteristics is crucial in curbing DF outbreaks METHODS:A search and destroy survey was carried out at 10 dengue hotspot localities in Shah Alam, Malaysia. A quantitative in-situ measurement of selected physical parameters was conducted focusing on the environmental characteristics and the presence of vegetation. Larvae and pupae found in different types of container were morphologically identified. RESULTS:Evidence of breeding was discovered in 62 containers. Rubber materials (container efficiency: 2.10), with clear water in the presence of dead vegetation (71 and 33% respectively) were found to be most efficient for pupae development. Furthermore, low water volume (60%) was preferred for breeding purposes. Kruskal-Wallis test demonstrated that water volume, wind velocity and distance from habitation were statistically significant towards dengue vectors. CONCLUSIONS:Our findings have provided the profile of Aedes species based on environmental and water conditions in hotspot areas in Malaysia. These outcomes provide useful information regarding container characteristics that can enable selective elimination of vector habitat thus minimizing the risk of dengue outbreak.
