Main roads are in yellow, orange and red whereas local streets are in white. Areas shaded in grey are residential and green marks are major forests (source: OpenStreetMap). Filled circles represent traps with at least one mosquito capture. b Same map as in a showing the density of Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus mosquitoes based on the number of captures in Caratinga. Mosquito density follows the color scale shown in the figure. c Total number of female Aedes mosquitoes (Ae. aegypti and Ae. albopictus) captured during the period of the study. Mosquito numbers show an increase in the summer and remain high until the fall. d Number of DENV infected Aedes females captured during this study where virus types are indicated by color. e Number of human dengue cases that were positive for viral RNA in the blood with the DENV types indicated by color
