  • Better Models for Mosquito Control: Impacts on Nontarget Insects and Joint Species Distributions of Mosquitoes

    Bio 415: BIO 415

    Targeted mosquito control is needed to limit the spread of vector borne pathogens, but efforts must be balanced between protecting public health and limiting environmental harm. This dissertation addresses these needs from two directions: 1) Studying the impacts of mosquito adulticides on nontarget insects and 2) advanced joint-species distribution models of mosquitoes to target control efforts. We conducted two multi-year …
