Location: Cesena/Italy, city with 100.000 peopleTime: June to October 2008
Study design:
Selection of 6 areas in Cesena where Asian Tiger mosquitoes (Aedes albopictus) occur. (Based on ovitrap measurements of the last years)
3 areas are randomly allocated to receive the treatment with traps, the other 3 areas are control areas where no traps are placed.
The treatment sector receives 8 traps, placed outdoor, run constantly for 24h, from June to October.
The control sector has no traps.
Following parameters are measured in all sectors:- Human landing rates (same person, 1h in the afternoon, every 5-7 days)- 2 Ovitraps are placed in a sector, weekly collections

Intervention and control areas
Six areas with simlar environmental conditions have been selected
- Three intervention areas with placement of traps: red dots
- Three control areas without placement of traps: blue dots
