Laboratory experiments were carried out to test the larvicidal properties of metallic copper against Ae albopictus, a species which has spread in Italy during the last 3 years. The results show the strongest lethal effect on 1st stage larvae and support the use of copper as a simple, cheap and environmentally safe agent to control larval breeding of Ae albopictus in peridomestic containers.

Abstract
Laboratory experiments were carried out to test the larvicidal properties of metallic copper against Ae albopictus, a species which has spread in Italy during the last 3 years. The results show the strongest lethal effect on 1st stage larvae and support the use of copper as a simple, cheap and environmentally safe agent to control larval breeding of Ae albopictus in peridomestic containers.File allegati a questo prodotto
