Abstract:
AbstractMassive mosquito nuisance problems, caused by the flood-water mosquito Aedes sticticus, occur after floods in the flood plains of the River Dalälven, central Sweden. Since 2002, the biological mosquito larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) has been used to control these mosquitoes. Here, we report results from the first six years of monitoring Chironomidae, the most susceptible non-target organisms, in three wetlands with Bti-treatment against mosquitoes and in three wetlands without treatment. Emergence traps were used for continuous insect sampling from May to Septe

Abstract:
Dan Region Waste Stabilization Ponds (DRWSP) were first operated in 1970 in a rural area south of Tel-Aviv. In subsequent years, with the massive urbanization of central Israel, residence has expanded within 2 km of the ponds. The ponds were found to be a suitable habitat for non-biting midges Chironomus spp. (Diptera; Chironomidae) larvae, giving birth to billions of adult chironomids per day. Since 1998, evening breezes have been carrying large adult swarms into the adjacent town of Rishon Le-Zion where they become a severe nuisance mainly during the spring and midsummer (April–July). Midges

Abstract:
A series of salt lakes near Port Augusta, South Australia, supports large larval populations of Tanytarsus barbitarsis Freeman, a chironomid midge. When adults emerge they often fly to nearby artificial lights, and when large numbers do so a considerable nuisance to local residents is caused. In an investigation designed to provide control advice, those parts of the spectrum of particular attractivity to adults were identified in an experimental study of phototactic responses. Results indicated that the peak of attractivity lies in the near-ultraviolet part of the spectrum (370-400 nm). A seco

Eutrophication is a global problem affecting many inland and estuarine waters. Many wetlands on the Swan Coast Plain, in Western Australia, have undergone increasing nutrient enrichment since European settlement of the region in the 1850’s. Problems such as algal blooms and nuisance swarms of non-biting midges (Diptera; Chironomidae) are the consequence of nutrient enrichment in many of these wetlands. The restoration of these degraded wetlands, especially with respect to reducing nutrient enrichment, requires a range of comprehensive and effective techniques including catchment management, di
