An improved ovitrap-based surveillance framework: facilitating cost-efficient monitoring and efficacy assessment of integrated vector management strategies for dengue outbreak control
In the present study, the IMT was developed and evaluated for field surveillance of Ae. albopictus mosquitoes. The core usage parameters of the IMT-based surveillance system, including the working radius and area deployment density, have been determined using systematic field investigations combined with mathematical modelling assessments. Furthermore, a novel strategy utilizing the IMT for evaluating the efficacy of integrated mosquito vector management in CATI during dengue outbreaks has been proposed. Preliminary results have confirmed the feasibility of using the IMT at outbreak sites, providing valuable support for CATI-based implementation. This innovative monitoring system offers an alternative solution and implementation strategy for conducting cost-effective surveillance of the dengue vector Ae. albopictus, as well as for evaluating the efficacy of integrated vector management during outbreaks.
