Abstract:
For a number of reasons, rearing Aedes mosquitoes is challenging and complex. Temperature, density, and the amount of food available to Aedes larvae affect them mating is not always accomplished naturally. The mosquito climate chambers, where they are maintained, are hot and humid. Because of these tropical conditions, the larvae grow quickly and require regular attention. The Dau Shri Vasudev Chandrakar Kamdhenu Vishwavidyalaya has successfully cultured several populations of various vectors. In this study, we cover various characteristics of mosquito rearing that have an impact on mosquito health and are crucial for the quality of basic and applied research.
