Larval research

The entoWIZ Field Larval Dipper is designed for efficient mosquito larval sampling in the field. Crafted from high-quality plastic, the off-white dipper features a wide-mouth design on both sides, allowing for easy collection of larvae. Its pure white inner surface enhances visibility, making it easier to observe and sort collected specimens.

This dipper comes with a durable fixed-length aluminum handle, typically 60 cm in length, ideal for standard field use. Optional handle upgrades are available:

• Fixed-length handle: 60–90 cm (default: 60 cm)

• Three-segment telescopic aluminum handle:

  • Length option 1: 53–107 cm

  • Length option 2: 61–141 cm

  • Length option 3: Maximum of 200 cm. This is used when collections are expected from deep waters like water tanks, sewer deep tanks, or other difficult to reach areas. Note that this option will produce a inconvenient length of the laddle when retracted. Can't be easily fit into carry bag.

A complete larval collection kit can be purchased separately.

A complete mosquito collection and sample processing kit designed for efficient field surveillance and research. Includes mechanical and mouth aspirators, larval dipper, pipettes, collection containers, insect handling tools, and a sturdy carry bag. Ideal for Aedes, Anopheles, and Culex mosquito monitoring in both lab and field environments.

Test tubes with rubber stoppers are commonly used for the storage of larvae in scientific research and entomology. These sampling tubes can be used for both adult collection and preservation of field larvae for further research. These tubes provide a safe and controlled environment for the adults, preventing their escape and keeping them secure. The rubber stoppers ensure an airtight seal, reducing the risk of contamination and allowing for the necessary ventilation.  

A mosquito larval tray with lid and escape funnel is essential for entomologists studying mosquito rearing. It ensures larvae develop into adults while allowing efficient collection. The Larval Tray with Aeration Lid provides a controlled environment. Emerging mosquitoes naturally move towards light and are funneled into a collection chamber. The Larval Tray for Mosquito Rearing enhances visibility for monitoring. The Mini Emergence Trap aids adult collection, supporting mosquito research effectively.
