West Nile Virus No mosquito trap pools tested positive for West Nile Virus in June nor were there were any reported cases of human WNV statewide during the month. By contrast several counties throughout the state recorded positive trap pools in June of 2014.

Most people infected did not take precautions such as wearing long sleeves and using repellents. • The most effective repellents contain 10%-35% DEET (N,N- diethyl-meta- toluamide). • DEET in high concentrations, above 50%, provides no additional protection. Adult Control Operations/Surveillance No adulticiding applications took place in May or June. Traps were set the first week of June and collected a total of 832 mosquitoes, of which 88% were Aedes and 8% were Culex. ---PAGE BREAK--- Larvicide Data Summary by REPORT DATE: 5/18/2015 to 6/30/2015 by ACCOUNT: MT CMMS - Comprehensive Mosquito Management System LARVAE-002 1 Thursday, July 09, 2015 * (Sites Treated/Wet Sites) ©2014 Colorado Mosquito Control Town of Monument 75 68 91 % 12 18 % 1.2 Total Site Inspections No. Wet Sites Percentage Wet Sites No Sites Treated Percentage Breeding* Total Acres Treated ---PAGE BREAK--- Adult Trap Data - Detail Trap # Date Species Count Percent TRAP-005 CMMS - Comprehensive Mosquito Management System 1 Thursday, July 09, 2015 ©2014 Colorado Mosquito Control 06/26/2015 Culex tarsalis 23 5 % 06/26/2015 Aedes vexans 17 4 % 06/26/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 415 89 % 06/26/2015 Culiseta inornata 13 3 % 06/19/2015 Culex tarsalis 1 1 % 06/19/2015 Aedes vexans 11 6 % 06/19/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 166 92 % 06/19/2015 Culiseta inornata 2 1 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) nigromaculi 3 8 % 06/05/2015 Aedes vexans 2 6 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) dorsalis 2 6 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 20 56 % 06/05/2015 Culiseta inornata 7 19 % 06/05/2015 Culex tarsalis 2 6 % MT-03 LIGHT Monument Well 4/5 06/26/2015 Culex tarsalis 12 41 % 06/26/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 13 45 % 06/26/2015 Culiseta inornata 2 7 % 06/26/2015 Aedes vexans 2 7 % 06/19/2015 Culiseta inornata 2 20 % 06/19/2015 Culex tarsalis 1 10 % 06/19/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 7 70 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) nigromaculi 4 50 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) dorsalis 4 50 % Trap Total 47 MT-02 LIGHT El Paso Monument West Oak Ridge 06/26/2015 Culiseta inornata 1 10 % 06/26/2015 Culex tarsalis 9 90 % 06/19/2015 Culex tarsalis 1 100 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) nigromaculi 1 25 % 06/05/2015 Aedes vexans 1 25 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) dorsalis 2 50 % Trap Total 15 MT-01 LIGHT El Paso Monument Dirty Woman Park ---PAGE BREAK--- Adult Trap Data - Detail Trap # Date Species Count Percent TRAP-005 CMMS - Comprehensive Mosquito Management System 2 Thursday, July 09, 2015 ©2014 Colorado Mosquito Control 06/26/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 28 61 % 06/26/2015 Aedes vexans 1 2 % 06/26/2015 Culex tarsalis 17 37 % 06/19/2015 Aedes vexans 1 3 % 06/19/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 31 94 % 06/19/2015 Culex tarsalis 1 3 % 06/05/2015 Culex tarsalis 1 14 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) dorsalis 2 29 % 06/05/2015 Aedes (Oc.) increpitus 2 29 % 06/05/2015 Aedes vexans 1 14 % 06/05/2015 Culiseta inornata 1 14 % Trap Total 86 MT-04 LIGHT El Paso Monument Creek Trap Total 684 TOTAL % 736 0 68 28 0 88 % 0 % 8 % 3 % 0 % Grand Total 832
