Abstract Present study was designed to estimate the average monthly production rate of Ae. aegypti in a rainwater filled bus/truck tire (1.041 m) and car tire (0.737 m) as well as in bus/truck tire lodged with pondwater which are lacking. An average of 3957 Ae. aegypti propagated from single rainwater filled bus/truck tire which was significantly higher than the average number of them produced in a rainwater filled car tire and a pondwater lodged bus/truck tire in a rainy month. Higher water holding capacity might be the cause of difference between the bus/truck tire and the car tire. On other hand, difference in multiple physio-chemical aspects between rainwater and pondwater seemed to be the determining factor to make difference in mosquito breeding potential in a bus/truck tire. It is assumed from the present study that an open dumping ground of discarded tires may account for huge production of Ae. aegypti. Discarded tires are recommended to be kept under shade or covered with polythene-sheet or apertures be made underside each tire for draining out the accumulated rainwater.

登革热媒介埃及伊蚊在雨水填充轮胎中每月传播的估计

摘要 本研究旨在估算 Ae 的平均月产量。aegypti 在充满雨水的公共汽车/卡车轮胎 (1.041 m) 和汽车轮胎 (0.737 m) 以及积聚在缺乏池塘水的公共汽车/卡车轮胎中。平均 3957 Ae。aegypti从单个雨水填充的公共汽车/卡车轮胎繁殖，这显着高于雨月填充雨水的汽车轮胎和池塘积水的公共汽车/卡车轮胎产生的平均数量。较高的保水能力可能是导致公共汽车/卡车轮胎和汽车轮胎之间存在差异的原因。另一方面，雨水和池塘水在多个物理化学方面的差异似乎是导致公共汽车/卡车轮胎中蚊子滋生潜力不同的决定因素。从目前的研究中假设，废弃轮胎的露天倾倒场可能是 Ae 的大量生产原因。埃及人。建议将废弃的轮胎放在阴凉处或用聚乙烯片覆盖或在每个轮胎的下方开孔以排出积聚的雨水。
