Dispersion of malaria vectors in a community near the city of Iquitos

Mosquito vectors of malaria were collected during the months of February and March. The collection was not continued due to the COVID pandemic in the community of Santa Rita, which is located 30 minutes from the city of Iquitos. Using satellite images, five different clusters were identified: Forest, Houses, Orchards, Flood-prone areas, and Vegetation Recovery patches. Mosquitoes were collected in all five clusters simultaneously for four nights each month to understand how malaria vectors disperse in the different sampled habitats.
