Guidelines for the surveillance of invasive mosquitoes in Europe
Publication metadata
In order to further harmonise surveillance procedures within Europe, ECDC has produced these guidelines which aim to support the implementation of tailored surveillance for invasive mosquito species of public health relevance. This guideline document provides accurate information and technical support for focused data collection in the field, gives cost estimates, and suggests adaptations
according to the evolution of the epidemiological situation. It also contributes to the harmonisation of surveillance methods and information records at EU level so that data from different countries/areas can be compared over time. It intends to provide support to professionals involved in implementing IMS surveillance or control, to decision- and policy-makers and stakeholders in public health, but also to non-experts in mosquito surveillance and control. The suggested methods may be applicable in the whole geographic area of Europe (thus in all EU Member States and EEA/EFTA countries, including EU Outermost Regions (ORs)), but not Overseas Countries and Territories (OCTs). This guideline document describes all procedures to be applied to the surveillance of IMS. The first part of these guidelines address strategic issues and steps to be taken by the stakeholders for the decision-making process, depending on the aim and scope of surveillance, its organisation and management, and the surveillance strategy to be developed. Three likely scenarios could be identified: Scenario 1 – no established IMS (but with risk of introduction and establishment); Scenario 2 – locally established IMS; Scenario 3 – widely established IMS. The risk estimate is here based on presence and abundance of mosquitoes, not on the likelihood of transmission of MBD. If the country already faces an outbreak of MBD, then surveillance activities may need extending/strengthening, according to complementary guidance for the surveillance of MBD and control of vectors and MBD. A second part addresses all operational issues and steps to be implemented by professionals involved in the applied process, i.e. key procedures for field surveillance of IMS, methods of identification of IMS, key and optional procedures for field collection of population parameters, pathogen screening, and environmental parameters. This part also recommends methods for data management and analysis, as well as strategies for data dissemination and mapping. Finally, a third part provides cost estimates for the planned programmes and the evaluation of the applied surveillance process.
