1 Alternative Application Technology Daniel L. Kline USDA-ARS, CMAVE Gainesville, FL dkline@gainesville.usda.ufl.edu

2 Alternative ApplicationTechnology Area repellents –Tent studies Insecticide-treated vegetation –Semi-field: CMAVE protocol –Field: Studies in Arkansas versus Anopheles

3 Pristine Sand Fly Habitat … Everywhere Before Tent Cities Military Relevance

4 Air Force Tent City Army Tent City

5 Area Repellents: Tent Studies Metofluthrin (SumiOne™) A highly volatile pyrethroid

6 Participants CMAVE –Dan Kline, Jerry Hogsette and Brian Quinn –Joyce Urban and Melissa Doyle NECE –CDR Steve Rankin –LCDR Dan Szumlas –Dr. Todd Walker Valent –John Lucas

7 Tent Studies: Metofluthrin (Sumi One TM ) Types of emanators Placement of emanators Number of emanators Environmental effects

8 A TENT A TENT B 100 feet 60 ft long 18’ 6” long Tent configurations West Cage East Cage 30 ft wide 13’ 6” wide

10 SumiOne™ Paper Emanators Surface area 4000 cm3 (both faces) Treated with 200 mg SumiOne®

11 Placement of emanators

12 SumiOne™ Plastic Emanators 7.9 cm wide x 11 cm long (192 holes, each.25 cm 2) Plastic impregnated with 5% (w/w) SumiOne®

13 Mosquito Magnets and emanators

14 Mosquitoes Released in Each Cage Ochlerotatus taeniorhynchus (500) Aedes aegypti (500)

15 Measures of Emanator Efficacy Landing counts on human volunteers (inside and outside tent) Mosquito Magnet Pro collections (within tents) Residue analysis

16 Percent reduction in trap collections with SumiOne paper at two heights

17 Percent residue of metofluthrin in paper emanators

18 Average percent reduction in trap collection using SumiOne plastic emanator

21 Overall Summary 1.SumiOne® shows potentially good knockdown and bite inhibition activity against mosquitoes. 2. Type and placement of SumiOne emanators is very important. 3. Further research is needed on type and placement of emanators. 4. Additional candidate compounds need to be evaluated.
