- W2408565552 abstract "ABSTRACT Objective: To provide information on the species of yellow fever mosquitoes occurring in Nsukka area, their biting activities as it relates to different sleeping heights in human dwellings and seasonal variation in numbers. Methods : Weekly (circadian) 24 h collections from human baits of potential yellow fever mosquito vectors were made indoors and outdoors and at different heights namely;0-36 cm (corresponding mat–lower bunk of a double bunk bed) and 1.9-2.2 m (representing the upper bunk of a double bunk bed) in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka campus and in Lejja village, from January to December 2013. Results: Six species of yellow fever, mosquitoes were recorded viz: Aedes albopictus , Ae. aegypti , Ae. africanus , Ae. vittatus , Ae. luteocephalus , and Ae. simpsoni . All six species were captured in the urban community (university campus) with Ae. albopictus (2832) being the most abundant followed by Ae. aegypti (1809) while Ae. simpsoni was the least with only 13 catches. Peak biting period in the urban community was between 5 pm and 8 pm but between 6 pm and 10 pm in the rural community. More mosquitoes fed at the mat/lower bunk sleeping level ( P < 0.05) than at the upper bunk level. Most of the mosquitoes species occurred throughout the year with peak populations in March and June except Ae. luteocephalus which peaked in August. Conclusion: The results suggest that Nsukka area in Enugu State is potentially at risk of yellow fever epidemic.
