Shaffer, J.L., Will P. Lumpkin & Scott E. Monsen,

VECTOR CONCEPTS’ DESIGN STANDARDS FOR

THE PREVENTION OF VECTOR-BORNE DISEASES

2009, 65 pp., color photos, dwgs.  Written for professionals in public health, planning,

and other disciplines who are involved in the preparation and planning or review of

project reports. Standards and examples are provided to address and mitigate the impact

of development for the prevention of vector-borne diseases.  More than ever there is a

need for developing and promoting water management practices that do not create habitat

for mosquito breeding. In addition, there has been a trend in the development of native

habitats that has effectively narrowed the interface that once existed between endemic

rodent populations their ecto-parasites and human neighborhoods. Color plates and line

drawings with detailed captions are used to provide specific examples of applied source

reduction. Hardbound; 8 ½” x 11 ½ ”.
