Vector Control Solutions

Vector is the term used to describe organisms, like mosquitoes, that transmit infectious disease across human or animal populations.

The Co-Diagnostics vector control program uses our diagnostic tests and affordable laboratory equipment solutions in vector control applications to test mosquito populations where the insect is known to act as a vector.

Ministries and Departments of Health in the U.S. and worldwide currently have vector control services to control, limit, or eradicate vectors where they are suspected to contribute to the spread of pathogens or outbreaks. Vector control and mosquito abatement play a vital role in preventing outbreaks and the spread of mosquito-borne diseases. Co-Diagnostics tests have been engineered with positive controls for either human or mosquito samples, ensuring reliable results.
