感染症を媒介する蚊とハエのオートサンプリングマシンの開発と駆除

抄録

Unmanned and automated surveillance is required to reduce the risk and burden on researchers who are tasked with long-term surveys using methods that carry a high risk of infection. In this study, we developed an automatic sampling machine that can survey and exterminate outbreaks of infectious disease-carrying mosquitoes using mechatronics. Furthermore, the machine has been applied to attract and eliminate mosquitoes, flies, and flies, which are natural enemies of dairy cows and pigs. We proposed and disseminated the introduction of this sampling machine from Tochigi Prefecture, which protects human lives from infectious diseases and has the second largest livestock industry in Japan for dairy cattle.
