The aedes aegypti mosquito is the primary vector for viruses that cause dengue fever and yellow fever. Aedes Aegypti is an early morning or late afternoon feeder, but will bite at night under artificial illumination.
Human blood is preferred over other animals with ankles as a favorite bite area.
Larvae die at temperatures below 10 . Aedes Aegypti flies only a few hundred yards from its breeding sites. 2001 American Biophysics Corp. All Rights Reserved.
