Use of an infusion-baited gravid trap to collect adult Ochlerotatus japonicus.
Ochlerotatus japonicus adults have proven difficult to collect in significant numbers in the USA. Standard trapping and collection methods have been ineffective. Infusion-baited gravid traps, typically intended to attract Culex spp., have provided the greatest number and most consistent supply of Oc. japonicus adults collected in New Jersey.
