Caption:
This 1963 photograph shows a Department of Health employee seated in a three-wheeled vehicle applying a mosquito larvicide to a sewer catch basin, which can serve as a site for standing water and mosquito breeding. This staged scenario, set in the fictional Dixon Tiller County, U.S.A., was used as a teaching aid to illustrate mosquito control practices and the epidemiology of vector-borne diseases.
