Cultural management of bluetongue virus vectors
Surveys and experiments in dairy wastewater ponds showed that pond design and management affect populations of blood-feeding gnats that spread bluetongue virus. A voiding shallow evaporation beds, changing water levels weekly, and keeping manure pollution below 300 to 400...

Surveys and experiments in dairy wastewater ponds showed that pond design and management
affect populations of blood-feeding gnats that spread bluetongue virus. A voiding
shallow evaporation beds, changing water levels weekly, and keeping manure pollution
below 300 to 400 milligrams COD per liter will help control gnats. |
