# Long description

This figure comprises two maps; at the top, a simplified map of south-east Europe centred on France and at the bottom an expanded map of the French coastal region where mosquitoes were sprayed by the French Government in the 1960s. The treated area, indicated by hatched markings on the map, extended along a 20–25 km-wide belt along the Mediterranean coast, centred around Montpellier including Perols, Maurin and Montferrier.
