Transmission of DENVs is dependent on the vector mosquito Aedes aegypti, and to a lesser extent Ae. albopictus. The spread of DENVs mirrors the vectors’ geographical distribution underlining why mosquito density is an important parameter for predicting DENV epidemics (4)]. The female mosquitoes lay their eggs in artificial water containers such as tires, cans, and jars. Due to water requirements for breeding, mosquito densities peak during wet season, with the direct consequence of rising numbers of dengue cases. The Ae. aegypti mosquito is well adapted to an urban environment and is a highly competitive vector due to its anthropophilic nature. It thrives in close proximity to humans and is an intermittent feeder implying a high frequency of multiple host contacts during a single gonotrophic cycle. Thus, the female mosquito can infect multiple persons in order to complete a single blood meal. Protective clothing and mosquito-repellent sprays are essential to avoid DENV transmission since the Aedes mosquitoes are active during the day, minimizing the use of bed nets.
