233 - Evaluations of novel attractants, repellents, and traps at Anastasia Mosquito Control District of St. Johns County, Florida

Abstract: During the 2024 mosquito season, the Anastasia Mosquito Control District of St. Johns County, Florida, conducted a series of evaluations to assess the efficacy of novel attractants, repellents, and traps for the control of public health vectors. These evaluations focused on optimizing mosquito management strategies to mitigate disease transmission risks and improve public health outcomes. By testing innovative products in real-world environments, the district aimed to identify the most effective tools for enhancing integrated mosquito management. The findings from these evaluations will contribute to improved vector control protocols, offering insights for future public health efforts.
