Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aim of this study was to reveal preference of oviposition sites of two subspecies (forest type/ domestic type) of Aedes aegypti in Western Kenya. Field research indicated that forest type distributed generally in various environment, while domestic type distributed specifically around populated area. However, the two subspecies did not differ in container type for oviposition. Both subspecies may be able to use every habitat and may select abundant type at the environment.
