Abstract:
Blood fed An.dirus collected from Khanh Phu commune, Khanh Vinh district, Khanh Hoa province were reared and forced to lay eggs in the insectary of NIMPE. Parous females fed with mice blood were found to easy to lay eggs from 3-5 batches more. The conditions for image development of image stages were found to be as follows: temperature from 23 - 26oC, light time 12 – 24 hour with 90 – 150 Lux; the density of larvae is 1/5.7 cm2 rearing tool surface. Mosquitoes survived from 2 – 28 days. The temperature of 23 – 26oC and humidity of 70 –70 % were determined to be optimal for development of mosquitoes
