Abstract

A new aerosol generator nozzle system (London Aire) offered for use in mosquito control programs was compared with a standard nozzle system (Leco). Estimates of droplet size and asSays with caged female Aedes taeniorhynchus (Wiedemann) and Anopheles quadrimaculatus Say indicated that the new system provided adequate aerosolization of technical malathion.
