英文摘要	Dengue is one of the most prevalent vector borne diseases in India. Knowledge of prominent breeding sites in a locality is a prerequisite for source reduction for the control of breeding of Aedes mosquito. The present study was carried out to know the container material most suitable for the survival of the Ae. aegypti in different seasons. Three municipal zones of Delhi South, Najafgarh and Shahdara North were selected for the study based on the previous year's dengue cases. Larval indices were highest in South zone followed by Shahdara North zone and Najafgarh zone. House Index were 17.1, 5.0 and 4.7; container index were 7.0, 1.9 and 1.7; and breteau Index were 25.6, 5.6 and 5.3 in South, Shahdara North and Najafgarh zones respectively. Among all the positive containers, highest positivity of Ae. aegypti larvae was recorded in plastic containers in South zone (86.90%), Najafgarh zone (70.58%) and Shahdara North zone (63.15%). Earthen pots were the second most positive containers in Shahdara North zone (21.05%) and 11.76% earthen pots were positive in Najafgarh zone. The role of desert coolers for breeding of Aedes mosquito was found negligible. The study showed plastic containers and earthen pots were the most productive containers for Aedes breeding. Therefore, emphasis should be made for control of breeding in plastic and earthen containers preferably as compared to desert coolers.
