Abstract
Aedes aegypti, commonly known as the yellow fever mosquito, is closely linked to the human environment and directly influenced by the availability of water-holding containers for oviposition and larval development. The discovery of an active population of Ae. aegypti in Columbus, GA, was deemed an important public health matter, and extensive surveillance was initiated to monitor, delineate, and suppress this population.
