초록

In the Republic of Korea, public health centers conduct vector mosquito control in accordance with infectious disease prevention laws. However, most public health centers have traditionally conducted periodic, uniform vector control across their respective regions without considering specific information on vector occurrence. In 2021, The Korea Diseases Control and Prevention Agency(KDCA) launched a control project to shift the paradigm toward mosquito control strategy based on mosquito surveillance data. In 2024, 18 local public health centers will participate in this project, which will progressively expanding so that it can be used countrywide. Local public health centers evaluate mosquito monitoring data using data gathered from Daily Mosquito Monitoring System(DMS), which enables them to pinpoint the best times and locations for vector control. Vector control activities carried out by local public health centers are computerized utilizing Vector Control Geographic Information System(VCGIS). Using the new control strategy with mosquito surveillance, the number of mosquito occurrences, number of control activities, and amount of insecticides have decreased compared to the periodic control activities. Based on mosquito surveillance data, it is anticipated that evidence-based mosquito vector control will offer a more efficient and effective means of mosquito control.
