During the past ten years, the islands of Guadeloupe (French West Indies) are facing dengue epidemics with increasing numbers of cases and fatal occurrences. The vector  Aedes aegypti  is submitted to intensive control, with little effect on mosquito populations. The hypothesis that important  Ae. aegypti  breeding sites are not controlled is investigated herein. For that purpose, the roof gutters of 123 houses were systematically investigated, and the percentage of gutters positive for  Ae. aegypti  varied from 17.2% to 37.5%, from humid to dry locations. In the dryer location, most of houses had no other breeding sites. The results show that roof gutters are becoming the most important  Ae. aegypti  breeding sites in some locations in Guadeloupe, with consequences on dengue transmission and vector control.
