. Ditching the pesky mosquito
Srnithsonian News Service Photo by Lawrence Howe
Entomologist Cyrus Lesser Inspects one of the ditches cut into a Maryland
marsh to control mosquitoes.
(continued from page IA)
ca--the mosquito transmits
dog heartworm and Eastern
Equine Encephalitis, a
sometimes deadly disease,
which not only afflicts horses
and mules but also may be
transmitted to man.
The Davis Island project
involved cutting ditches ap-
proximately 3 feet wide and
from 2 to 3 feet deep
throughout the marsh to in-
terconnect mosquito breeding
sites. This allowed predatory
fish to reach and devour
mosquito larvae and, at the
same time, removed stagnant
water. The key to the
procedure was connecting all
of the potential mosquito
breeding sites, something that
wasn't done when parallel
ditching was in vogue.
The scientists studied four
areas having similar
vegetation and drainage.
Three of the sites were ditched
and the fourth served as a
control. In the hope of
providing additional habitat
for wildlife, they also created

"But," he adds, "these
unwanted changes can be
avoided by controlling the
water table levels. And other
than these adverse vegetation
changes at one site, the
management method has not
led to any problems with
either the vegetation or water
quality in the adjacent
estuary."
In addition to eliminating
the need for repeated, costly
applications of insecticides, FACTO
the non-parallel ditching
method has pleased con-
servationists. "The new
ditching technique is OUTLET
especially beneficial to
waterfowl," Dr. Vagn Flyger,
a wildlife biologist with the STORE
University of Maryland, says.
"It provides them with access
to food, and the small ponds
created throughout the
marshes are ideal resting
spots for migratory birds."
Researchers are hopeful
that the results of the Davis
Island study can be applied
elsewhere in Maryland and
other areas to promote and
improve open-marsh water
management. In addition to
Maryland, New Jersey and
Delaware have initiated such
programs.
Still, even if ditching is
proven to be safe and ef-
fective, scientists admit that
they have a long way to go
before we can bid good rid-
dance to this ubiquitous pest.
Ditching may take care of the
five species of salt marsh
mosquitoes, but there are 163
additional species living and
breeding in North America.
