Attraction, engorgement, mortality, and fecundity were observed on host-seeking Aedes vexans and Psorophora confinnis given the opportunity to feed on insecticide-treated steers in stable traps. Individual steers were treated with Ectrin ear tags, Ectrin spray, Terminator ear tags, Saber ear tags, or Ivomec injection or were left untreated. Aedes vexans and Ps. confinnis accounted for over 98% of 20,738 mosquitoes collected. Relative attraction ranged from 0.45 with Saber ear tag to 0.84 with Terminator ear tag. Engorgement rates of mosquitoes from insecticide-treated steers ranged from 55 to 91%. Engorgement was reduced 18-45% by Terminator ear tag, Ectrin spray, and Saber ear tag treatments. Forty-eight percent mortality of unengorged Ae. vexans and 61% mortality of unengorged Ps. confinnis was observed at collection with the Saber ear tag treatment. Percentage of mortality of engorged mosquitoes of both species was generally much lower. Ivomec injection treatment showed the greatest effect on delayed (48-h) mortality of engorged mosquitoes, with 41 and 82% mortality for Ae. vexans and Ps. confinnis, respectively. No insecticide treatment had a significant effect on fecundity.
