In this paper, we have proposed and mathematically modeled an epidemic problem with vector-borne disease. We have taken three different classes for the trees, namely susceptible, exposed and infected, and two different classes for the vector population, namely susceptible and infected. In the first part of our paper, we rigorously analyze our model using the dynamical systems approach. Global stability of equilibria is resolved by using Lyapunov functional. In the second part, the model is reformulated as an optimal control problem in order to determine the significance of certain control measures on the model. We apply four control parameters, namely the tree injection control to the trees, deforestation of infected trees, eradication effort of aerial insecticide spraying and the effort of restrain of mating. Both numerical and analytical methods are employed to ascertain the existence of cost effective control measures.
