Abstract

Mariana Sowamber*

This comprehensive review delves into the intricate landscape of mosquito-borne diseases, focusing on the surveillance strategies targeting two major vectors, Anopheles and Aedes, in the context of lymphatic filariasis and public health. Mosquito-borne diseases pose significant global health challenges and understanding the surveillance methods for these vectors is pivotal for effective prevention and control. Through a synthesis of existing literature, this review aims to provide insights into the advancements and challenges in Anopheles and Aedes surveillance, shedding light on their role in the transmission of lymphatic filariasis and implications for public health.
