Abstract:Objective To explore the application of the moving epidemic method,a time series-based graded early warning model for infectious disease epidemic intensity in the ecological monitoring of Aedes albopictus,so as to provide scientific guidance for its control.Methods The density data of Ae.albopictus collected using CO2 mosquito lure lamp method in Xicheng District,Beijing from 2018 to 2023,were analyzed and classified using the moving epidemic method.Each threshold was calculated,and thus the density intensity of Ae.albopictus in different seasons in 2024 were analyzed.Results When the density of Ae.albopictus came up to 0.06 mosquitoes/(lamp·hour),the activity intensity reached the initial threshold;at 0.43 mosquitoes/(lamp·hour),it reached the medium threshold;at 0.81 mosquitoes/(lamp·hour),it reached the high threshold;and at 0.98 mosquitoes/(lamp·hour),it reached the ultra-high threshold.Conclusion By formulating corresponding control strategies based on these threshold values and implementing interventions for the control work in 2024,the density of Ae.albopictus in that year can be effectively reduced.
