The rapid growth in popular-
ity of stabilization ponds has raised
some concern that they may. be
a: public health hazard from the
standpoint of mosquitoes,“A special
survey-of Dakota installation was
conducted in July and’ August,
1958. Eighteen, or 69 per cent of
the ponds, were found positive
for Culex Tarsalis considered
major vector of encephalitis in the
western states. Of the 18 positive
fonds eight were rated as light
infestations, 2 as moderate, and 8
were rated as heavy infestations.
Over 99 per cent of the mosquitoes

collected were Culex Tarsalis, Ve-
