Percentages of mosquito-positive ovitraps (Traps positive), and air temperatures. Air temperature was calculated in the week before sampling in 2018. Sampling dates and the number of analysable ovitraps from a total of 270 ovitraps (in brackets) are shown on the x-axis. There was no statistically significant difference between the numbers of Aedes japonicus japonicus-positive ovitraps sampled in spring (April–May) and in autumn (October–November) (identical lowercase letters). By contrast, the numbers of Ae. japonicus japonicus-positive ovitraps in the summer (12 June to 25 September) were statistically significantly higher than in spring and autumn (different lowercase letters) (Fisher’s exact test: P < 0.0001. For all P-values, see Additional file 1: Table S2. For total numbers of emerged adults, see Additional file 2: dataset S1
