- •
Prevention of equine arboviruses requires a clear knowledge of potential vectors.
- •
Mosquito surveys of six equestrian farms in Belgium were conducted in 2011–2012.
- •
We characterized mosquito fauna, their ecology and identified potential vectors.
- •
Water troughs, ponds and slurry were the most favorable breeding sites of larvae.
- •
Equestrian farms provide suitable areas for the proliferation of potential vectors.
