Abstract：Began from the investigation of the hosts and vectors of plague, epidemic haemorrhagic fever and leptospirosis, mosquitoes, and flies, Zhejiang Province gradually implemented the ecological surveillance of mosquitoes, flies, cockroaches, rats, ticks and bed bugs, the drug resistance surveillance of mosquitoes, flies and cockroaches, the pathogenic surveillance of rats, mosquitoes and ticks. We carried out the comprehensive surveillance research into rats, mosquitoes, ticks and so on, and should further strengthen the analysis and utilization of surveillance data through the development of surveillance on ecological, drug-resistant, pathogenic and epidemic characteristics. We thoroughly implemented the concept of vector sustainable control, actively carried out the analysis and risk warning research of surveillance, to escort vector-borne diseases prevention and control, National Health City construction, and public health protection for big events; explored the technology of vector surveillance in rural areas, to serve for vector sustainable control for the rural revitalization strategy and beautiful countryside construction. This paper reviewed the progress of vector surveillance and related research in Zhejiang Province since 1930s, summarized the experience, and put forward to strengthen the technical areas of weakness and personnel training, to promote scientific and technological innovation, and to accelerate the construction of a information integrated system for vector surveillance of the new era in Zhejiang Province.
