Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) pose a significant threat to global health, with transmission dynamics intricately linked to the role of arthropod vectors. Mosquitoes, ticks, and other arthropods serve as crucial intermediaries, acquiring arboviruses during blood meals and subsequently transmitting them to new hosts. The vector competence of arthropods, influenced by factors such as species, genetics, and environmental conditions, plays a pivotal role in determining their ability to transmit specific arboviruses. Arbovirus transmission cycles exhibit both sylvatic and urban components, with some viruses alternating between vertebrate hosts and arthropod vectors in natural habitats, while others adapt to urban environments. Understanding the ecology of arthropod vectors is essential for predicting and controlling the spread of arboviral diseases. Integrated vector management strategies, including insecticide use, vector surveillance, and community education, are crucial for reducing vector populations and minimizing the risk of arbovirus transmission. Arthropod-borne viruses continue to be a focus of ongoing research, with efforts directed towards unraveling the molecular and ecological factors influencing vector competence. These insights are invaluable for the development of targeted interventions aimed at mitigating the impact of arthropod-borne viruses on global health.
