Table 1 Parameter definitions and input values.

Parameter	Definition	Values	Refs
Aedes aegypti
	Life expectancy	4–30 days	59
t_incub	Incubation period	7–15 days	60,61
c	Biting rate of humans by a female mosquito	0.33–1 days⁻¹	35,36,38
β_h	Transmission rate from human to mosquito per bite	0.30–0.51	62
β_v	Transmission rate from mosquito to human per bite	0.06–0.24	estimated*
Aedes albopictus
1/μ_v	Life expectancy	8–32 days	59
t_incub	Incubation period	2–7 days	61,62
c	Biting rate of humans by a female mosquito	0.19–0.39 days⁻¹	37,50
β_h	Transmission rate from human to mosquito per bite	0.8–1	62
β_v	Transmission rate from mosquito to human per bite	0.1–0.36	estimated*
Human
1/γ	Incubation period in humans	2–6 days	3,24,63
χ	Reduction of mobility for symptomatic cases	50–80%	23,39,40
1/v	Pre-symptomatic period	1–3 days	31,32
κ	Proportion symptomatic	0.7–0.9	18,63, 64, 65
1/η	Infectious period	7–10 days	66, 67, 68
R₀	Basic reproduction number	1.5–7	6,31,43,69

^*Parameter was estimated by fitting the R₀ of the model against empirical estimates. In the fitting process, β_v was varied from 0.001–1.
