106 Fig. 2. Periferal Districts of Rome where foci of Aedes albopictus were firsr recorded in 1997. ISS are processed weekly from the system, creating thematic maps to be used for the planning of subsequent interventions. Currently stored data on seven years of management (2001-2007), allowing the study of trends, evaluating the effectiveness of interventions carried out across the city and at any time. The application of this methodology allows work to display in real time the performance of an individual in the various sectors and identification of areas to make treatments to prevent the onset of. Interventions carried out by AMA go in the period from April to October, are antilarval treatments and are developed at a frequency that affect public areas such as manholes roads, schools, cemeteries, senior citizens centres and other contexts identified as subjects of intervention. The Municipality of Rome, by 2000 launched a widespread information campaign (through leaflets, brochures, posters, web pages and press releases), and issue annually a Mayor Ordinance contains provisions designed to prevent the spread of Asian Tiger Mosquito. The effectiveness of the contrast action to the spread of this insect is closely related to the cooperation of citizens, it is now understood the importance of shifting their attention to the control of its territory housing, because only through their intervention was possible reach and neutralise the millions of small domestic focus. Through AMA, the Municipality of Rome provides citizens with a call center which collects reports of citizens and provides suggestions for the adoption of correct behaviour to counter the spread of this insect. Through AMA, the Municipality of Rome provides citizens with a call center which collects reports of citizens and provides suggestions for the adoption of correct behaviour to counter the spread of this insect. The methodology of control over territory are taken into consideration two indices of a direct (results of the monitoring) and an indirect (number of reports received the call center). The first with the egg counts indicates the numerical presence of female mosquito and their reproductive B. Cignini et al. - The ten-year experience potential, the second indicates the presence of this insect through the discomfort felt by the citizens. Evolution of the Asian Tiger Mosquito in the Municipality of Rome The Asian Tiger Mosquito (Aedes albopictus) was first reported in Rome in late August 1997 in remote areas of northwest quadrant (Montespaccato) in the southeast quadrant (Tor Carbone) thanks to the numerous reports from citizens (Figure 2). In 1998 began the first campaign to combat the spread of this insect entrusting monitoring activity at the ISS and the interventions at the AMA. Despite the timely intervention by the Municipality of Rome, in the following 3 years, the Asian Tiger Mosquito is spreading as leopard spot in the urban territory, until in 2002 to spread through all the city territory. In 2003 the infestation is falling from north-east of the city, recording the lowest values in VII and VIII District, from 2006 there has been a gradual and slow decline of the urban territory until to stabilise in 2007 (Figures 3 and 4). Conclusions The experience in ten years of activity to control the spread of Asian Tiger Mosquito leads us to infer that in the city of Rome this insect develops in a myriad of micro focus present particularly in private areas, while in communal areas they are consisting almost exclusively from machicolations. As machicolations with the presence of water represent a small percentage of all those present in the city, is in course their census to limit treatments to those potentially positive. Another development will be the integration into Geographical Informatic System, of the census of several kinds of manholes roads and green areas in different public and private as well as all the features of the area that may be related to the presence of the Asian Tiger Mosquito. As highlighted by the decline in population density of the Asian Tiger Mosquito the currently situation in Rome can be considered under control, and this positive result can be attributed to good organization of the annual programme conducted by the Municipality of Rome, which allows targeted interventions in hazardous or highly infested and the information campaign that has responsible citizens transforming from spectators to players who helped themselves to the containment of this phenomenon. This methodology of work as well as allowing the display of realtime trends, allows mainly to identify in advance areas at risk of infestation higher is not just on account of the importance that health care could be the presence of this insect as a potential carrier of diseases transmitted by Arbovirus. The presence in a multiethnic city like Rome, by peoples from countries where these diseases are endemic, makes it theoretically possible arise epidemical episodes of Dengue or Fever by Chikungunya, and is for this reason that the Municipality of Rome considers this insect a “special watched.
