Popis:	Dengue 3 epidemic was declared in Abidjan in 2018. Vector control was directed towards management of breeding sites to reduce proliferation of mosquitoes. Thus, characterization was carried out through larval prospecting in 100 households in six communes of Abidjan in February and August (large and small dry season) of 2018, before and after mosquito control. 3,809 larval breeding sites were inventoried, including 2,289 before and 1,520 after (p-value > 0.05). 76% of sites (2,909), consisted of water storage (1,380) and abandoned containers (1,529). These two categories were most abundant in households (p-value
