dc.description.abstractAs in many other Asian countries, vector control entities in Sri Lanka also depend upon larval indices as the major driving factor of routine entomological surveillance and management of dengue vectors. However, studies aimed at defining the role of larval indices, which reflect the population dynamics of dengue vectors, on the incidence of dengue outbreaks are limited. This is mainly due to restrictions in long-term vector density related data. Hence, the current study attempts to evaluate the role of larval indices on the incidence of dengue epidemics in Akurana, Medical Officer of Health (MOH) area.en_US
