About This Project

I propose to establish a network of adult mosquito trapping stations in the Northwestern Ohio region to assess the potential geographic range expansion of the Zika virus vectors, Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus. These Zika virus vectors occur in southern Ohio and these species may expand their geographic ranges northward, because of climate change. The potential for many mosquito vectors of various pathogens to expand their geographic ranges is a real possibility with climate change.
