Abstract
Adult Chironomidae (Diptera) emerging from eutrophic lakes or polluted water bodies are a severe nuisance and cause economic problems. In the Lake Suwa area, mass flights of adult chironomid midges, particularly Chironomus plumosus and Propsilocerus akamusi, have occurred frequently, causing problems in the daily life of local residents and to the tourist industry. I have tried to clarify the biological and hygiene problems caused by these mass flights. To control adult midges, (1) studies on the flight behavior and resting habit of midges were carried out, and (2) field trial trapping control methods for midges by attracting them to lights and sounds were investigated. Any plans that effectively promote human coexistence with other organisms as auxiliary measures must be examined.
