Abstract

Light traps were operated in northern Minneapolis-St. Paul to determine effects of precipitation and control activities upon abundance of Aedes vexans. Data show that the number of female A. vexans taken at the traps is correlated fairly closely with total rainfall, in spite of intensive mosquito abatement operations within the area.
