Foreword
This technical guide (TG)waswritten to consolidateinformation and procedures for surveillance andcontrol of mosquitoes that transmit dengue andchikungunyaviruses. ThisTGfocusesonmosquitoesthat transmit dengue but also makes reference tochikungunyaandyellowfeverbecausethepathogensthat cause these diseasesmay be transmitted by thesame mosquito species. Thus, control of denguevectorswillalsocontrolthespreadofthesediseases.ThisTG is not a regulationbut provides guidance tothose individuals responsible for conducting pestcontrolandsurveillanceduringmilitarydeployments.This TG will receive periodic review and will beupdatedtoensurethatinformationpresentedreflectscurrent technology and guidance. Individuals usingthis TG are encouraged to submit comments andsuggestions for improvement to theDirector, ArmedForces Pest Management Board, US ArmyGarrison―ForestGlen,2460LindenLane,Bldg#172,Silver Spring,MD 20910‐1230: (301) 295‐7476; Fax(301)295‐7473.

1.Introduction
This guide is designed to serve as a quickreferencefortheidentification,surveillance,andcontrol of mosquito species that transmitdengue and chikungunya viruses. The threemain components of the guide arebiology/identification, surveillance, andcontrol.These components are necessary in theplanning, conduct and evaluation of a denguevectorcontrolprogram.Thisguide isnotacomprehensive treatmentofthe subject.Please see theAdditionalGuidance,References,andPointsofContactsectionsforin‐depth information on specific subjectsintroducedinthisguide.

Dengue is considered a significant risk todeployed troops by the National Center forMedical Intelligence. The approximateworldwide distribution of dengue viruses isshownbelow.

Aedesaegypti,Ae.albopictusandAe.polynesiensisare three mosquito species that are vectors ofdengue.Aedesaegypti accounts for >95%of allcasesworldwide.Duringdeployments,allthreespecies must be considered important vectors,andcontrolmeasuresmustbeput intoplace toprotecttroophealth.

Chikungunya is another arboviral diseasetransmitted to humans by the bite of infectivemosquitoes. Chikungunya virus has causedhuman epidemics in many areas of Africa andAsia, and most recently in a limited area ofEurope (CDC 2008). Both Ae. aegypti and Ae.albopictus are vectors of chikungunya, and thisvirus is of special concern due to the recentresurgence and spread of these mosquitospecies.

4.Control
An importantway to bothprevent and controldengue transmission is to eliminate thebreeding sites ofAe.aegypti andAe.albopictusand/or kill larvae and adult mosquitoes.Environmental control or eliminating breedingsiteswillinvolvemobilizationofmilitaryassetsand the direct support of your chain ofcommand.ThenecessaryequipmenttokilladultandlarvalAedes can be found in AFPMB Technical Guide24:ContingencyPestManagementGuide.Ifyoudo not have a copy of this document, visitwww.afpmb.org or contact the AFPMBdirectlytoobtainone.SURVEILLANCE is ESSENTIAL in monitoringthe success or failure of any control program.Alwaystrytosamplelarvaeand/oradultspriorto and after control efforts, thereby revealinganyreductioninmosquitonumbers.

Environmental Control: The best way toreduce populations of bothAe. aegypti andAe.albopictus is through environmental control,alsoknownassourcereduction,removinganddisposingofcontainersthatholdwaterallowingimmaturestagestodevelop.Usingthismethod,dengue has been successfully prevented incommunities and over large geographic areas.Checking for the presence of mosquito larvaeand pupae will tell you which containers arebreedingmosquitoes.The idea isverysimplebutdifficult toput intopractice and sustain over long periods of timewithout thenecessarysupport. Youmusthavetheabsolutesupportofyourchainofcommandto develop and conduct a source reductionprogram.During humanitarian missions, if you plan ondesigning and carrying out a source reductionprogram as part of Integrated VectorManagement (WHO 2011), efforts must becoordinated with local, regional and nationalhealthauthoritiestoensurelocalcompliance.

Thermal Fogging: Indoor and outdoor spacespraying using thermal fogs is a component ofmany dengue control programs around theworld. If possible, spray inside and within a400m to 500m radius of structures (WHO2009).For control of sylvatic populations of Ae.albopictus, spraying in and around vegetationthatservesasharboragewillbecritical.Due to the amount of smoke generated, becertain to coordinate your efforts with allsecurity personnel prior to conducting spraymissions.TheGoldenEagleiscurrentlytheonlyhandheldthermalfoggeravailableinthestocksystem.Seethe insecticide list onpage24of this guide forinsecticidesusedforthermalfogging.NOMENCLATURE NSNFogGenerator,ManuallyCarried,gasolineenginedriven,thermalfog,CurtisDynaModel2610GoldenEagle.

5.PersonalProtectionDiseases such as dengue and chikungunya, andinjury caused by insect bites can be preventedby employing personal protective measures.ThemilitaryrecommendsuseoftheDoDInsectRepellentSystem,athreefoldsystemcomprisingapermethrin‐treateduniform, applicationofaninsect repellent on exposed skin, and properwearingoftheuniform.Thetreatmentoffielduniformswithpermethrincan be accomplished individually using eitherthe Aerosol Spray Can (NSN: 6840‐01‐278‐1336) or an IDAKit (NSN: 6840‐01‐345‐0237).Service members can also have a certifiedapplicatortreatuniformsusing40%permethrin(NSN: 6840‐01‐334‐2666) applied with an aircompressionsprayer.

Several DEET‐based repellents for use onexposed skin are currently available. Theyinclude 3M Ultrathon 33% DEET lotion (NSN:6840‐01‐284‐3982); Cutter Backwoods 23%DEET spray (NSN: 6840‐01‐584‐8598);Ultra30/LipoDEET 30% lotion (NSN: 6840‐01‐584‐8393), a controlled release formulation;DEET/SPF15 sunscreen 20% DEET [NSNs:6840‐01‐288‐2188 (tube) and 6840‐01‐452‐9582(packets)];andcamouflagefacepaint30%DEET(NSN:6840‐01‐493‐7334).Proper wearing of the uniform provides anexcellent physical barrier against insect bites.This is accomplished by ensuring that theundershirt is tucked into the pants, and blousesleevesarerolleddownandbuttoned.Pantscanbe secured using blousing straps or can betucked into the boots. The uniform should bewornlooselysothatinsectscannotbitethroughfabricthatistightagainsttheskin.Treatedpop‐upstylebednetsarealsoavailableto protect service members while they sleep[NSNs: 3740‐01‐516‐4415 (green camo) and3740‐01‐518‐7310(coyotebrown)].
