40 to 50 BGS traps were utilized during an intensive 5-year surveillance as part of an 'Area-wide Management Program for the Asian Tiger Mosquito' in NJ, USA. The results are now published. The authors say that the Biogents Sentinel (BGS) trap is a very effective tool to monitor adult populations of Aedes albopictus and that although BGS traps are becoming the gold standard instrument for Ae. albopictus surveillance, they can also be used to collect other important mosquito species, which can enhance existing vector surveillance programs.
