Abstract
ⶠModular, transparent column system to study mosquito larval depth-dependence behavior. ⶠSimultaneous quantifying toxin sedimentation and diving of mosquito larvae. ⶠLarvicidal activity of Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis is affected by water depth. ⶠMortality of Aedes aegypti larvae increases up to 60% at net-depths above 75 cm. ⶠPesticide application must consider depth of the water body as well as surface area.
