Owing to the development of pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles gambiae, there is a need to develop chemical alternatives for use on mosquito nets. Synthetic insect repellents are widely used for personal protection as skin or clothing applications.

Transmission of malaria in the Tesseney area of Eritrea: parasite prevalence in children, and vector density, host preferences, and sporozoite rate. [PDF]
Malaria transmission was studied from July to September, 2002 in three villages of the Tesseney sub-zone, in the western lowlands of Eritrea. The three methods used for mosquito collection were light traps, pyrethrum spray catches, and pit shelter ...

Evaluation of the efficacy of carbosulfan and permethrin-impregnated curtains against Anopheles gambiae in a village in Burkina Faso, West Africa: Society Meeting at Manson House, London, 7 December 2000: Research in progress: short presentation [PDF]
Pyrethroid resistance is a serious threat to the continued success of impregnated bednets and has been reported in the main malaria vector Anopheles gambiae s.s. in several West African countries (CHANDRE, F. 77, 230-234). In Ivory Coast, KOLACZINSKI, J.
