Over 85 per cent of all known animal species belong to Arthropoda which includes the vectors of most important diseases. They affect our health either directly by bites, stings or indirectly throughdisease transmission. Several genera of Arthropods like mosquitoes, flies, ticks and mites play animportant role in human disease transmission. The most significant vector borne disease transmission is by blood feeding insects. Utilization of larvivorous fish in vector borne disease control programme is gaining momentum. Poecilia reticulata survives in all types of water bodies and can tolerate high degree of pollution. It is prolific breeder and surface feeder, carnivorous, thus efficient larvivorous fish. Present investigation reveals that low oxygen content in sewage water and surface feeding nature make it to stay at surface waters for longer time as compared to pond water. |
