Citizen Science vs. Ovitraps
Method Cost per Km sq.
Ovitraps 11 euros
Mosquito Alert 0.63 euros
Research: municipal alert probabilities
Research: ovitrap vs citizen science
Results: mosquito flow estimates
1) Probability of mosquitoes in transport vehicles 2) Vehicles mobility (origin-destination) 3) Number of mosquitoes at origin

Citizen Mobility Surveys
…but not direct evidence
…and lack of quantitative estimate
Direct evidence
770 cars sampled 4 mosquitoes found
July – October
Metropolitan Area of Barcelona
5 [2-10] out of each 1000 cars may carry a Tiger mosquito female
Considering 6.127.000 car trips per workday this implies
moving 31.860 Ae. albopictus daily in the area
Results: Bernoulli process, Bayesian Estimate
