Definition of Vector a. The term vector refers to organisms, primarily arthropods and rodents, which play a significant role in the transmission of disease to man, act as intermediate hosts or reservoirs of disease, present problems of sanitary or hygienic significance, or otherwise affect the health and efficiency of personnel. Included are arthropods such as mosquitoes, biting flies, filth and flesh flies, lice, bed bugs, reduviid bugs, fleas, mites, ticks, and mammalian pests such as rodents and bats. Cockroaches, ants, wasps, spiders, scorpions, and food infesting insects are pestiferous arthropods not ordinarily associated with specific diseases. b. In addition to the vector pests described above, the definition of pests in this Chapter also includes those that are objectionable because of their presence. Organisms destructive to structures, stored products, grounds, and other material properties are classified as "economic pests." For information on economic pests, as well as for additional vector species, refer to the Armed Forces Pest Management Board publications, "Military Pest Management Handbook," and “Technical Guide 24: Contingency Pest Management Pocket Guide.” 8-2. Policies for Pest Control a. Department of Defense (DOD) Directive 4150.7, Pest Management Program provides basic standards and policies governing the Navy’s pest control programs. This directive establishes minimum levels of pest control for DOD installations and program policies for pest management implementation. b. Office of the Chief of Naval Operations (OPNAV) Instructions 6250.4, Pest Management Programs and 5090.1, Environmental and Natural Resources Protection outline pest control responsibilities and functions of the offices and commands of the Department of the Navy and establish policies to provide maximum effectiveness, efficiency, and safety in pest control operations. (1) Shore Activities. Commanders of all shore activities of the Department of the Navy bear the basic responsibility for the maintenance of an adequate vector and economic pest control program. This responsibility is normally delegated to the medical and public works departments. The public works department is required to conduct pest control operations as a scheduled part of performed services. The medical department is required to plan and recommend vector control 9 Nov 2004 8-1
