Mosquito Key Breeding Sites at Phuket Province, Thailand
This study aimed to compare mosquito species, abundance and mosquito key breeding sites at four beaches: (1) Bang Rong Beach, (2) Supalai Scenic Bay Resort area, (3) Pakok Beach and (4) Coral Island Beach at Phuket province, Thailand. We collected mosquito key breeding sites and examined these factors: (1) Natural / Man made Containers, (2) Metal / Plastic / Earthen Containers, (3) Containers with Lid / Without Lid, (4) Water Levels (0-25%, 26-50%, 51-75%, 76-100%), (5) Water Temperature, (6) Containers / Breeding sites and (7) Mosquito species: Aedes (Ae. albopictus, Ae. aegypti), and Culex spp. We used the GLOBE Observer: MHM App and reported our data to the GLOBE website. Our results showed that in all the areas, we found 12 metal containers, 17 plastic containers, 13 earthen materials, 6 natural materials and 17 containers classified as other materials. In every area combined, man-made containers were higher than natural containers. Most containers are made of metal, 8 containers have lids, while 57 do not. We found that we could only find mosquito larvae in plant pots. CI in Supalai Scenic Bay Resort area most valuable.
