Mosquito populations, 2008 |
|||
| These mosquito population graphs are based
on surveillance trap counts and may be averaged over several days
and several traps. This information will assist individuals involved
in public mosquito control programs to visualize trends in mosquito
populations. These counts are relative and depend upon factors such as the type of mosquito trap, the location of the trap, and the makeup of the mosquito population. |
These numbers should not be used to estimate if the mosquito problem is better or worse in a particular location. The change or trend in the numbers of mosquitoes caught is what should be considered. If you have questions or comments, please contact Jim Wilson by email or at 605 688-4752. | ||
