ABSTRACT
Field trials in Salt Lake City, Utah and Chesapeake,
Virginia using caged Cx. tarsalis, Cx. pipiens, and Culex quinquefasciatus, Anopheles
crucians, and Anopheles quadrimaculatus
respectively were performed using a new adulticide, etofenprox. Caged
mosquitoes were placed on stakes that were located 100 feet apart in a 3 X 3
grid. 24 hour mortality was greater than
90% at 100, 200 and 300 feet down wind from the spray vehicle.
