Prevenção domiciliar da dengue: avaliação preliminar de tela protetora para pratos de vasos de planta

Abstract: The effectiveness of a polyester mesh cover (evidengue ® ), aimed at preventing the access of female Aedes aegypti mosquitoes to flowerpot saucers, was evaluated in laboratory. Two saucers of flowerpot with water were individually wrapped with the cover was placed with their respective pots in two entomological cages. One identical set of flowerpot and saucer was placed in a third cage. In each cage, 20 gravid females, fed on mouse blood, were released. Results show that the cover was effective to prevent acce… Show more

“…Um estudo experimental sobre a eficácia do uso de capas de tela de poliéster (Evidengue®) em pratos de planta demonstrou resultados positivos como barreira física para a oviposição das fêmeas de mosquitos. Todavia, os autores referem que esses resultados foram insuficientes para avaliar sua efetividade como dispositivo de prevenção da ovipostura 22 .…”

“…In the latter, we pay tribute to the researcher Virgínia Schall, who devised Evidengue®, a cloth-made device to cover plant pot saucer, an easily crafted tool to prevent the proliferation of mosquitoes in the external or internal area of the residence. The Evidengue® was made using a plastic bag, or a cloth, and tied with a ribbon or string, completely wrapping the pot and saucer, so that mosquitoes cannot reach accumulated water [51]. The visitation to "Interactive House" ends at the external environment where a used tire is identified presenting living mosquito larvae (previously introduced) which can be easily collected and observed using clear disposable glasses, a drain chute blocked with leaves, a dog bowl, an Evidengue®, presented in a simple way, discussing alternatives to combat vectors and reservoir hosts breeding in the household environment.…”

“…A eficiência desta medida também é questionada; a não ser que haja troca constante da areia, a medida torna-se efetiva, pois, com o passar do tempo, há redução do volume, promovendo a formação de uma lâmina de água acima da camada de areia. Assim, somente a adoção de dispositivos capazes de vedar o recipiente ou a não-utilização destes é que evitará a ovipostura e desenvolvimento de larvas no recipiente (BARROS, 2007;SCHALL et al, 2009).…”
