Evaluating larvicide performance against Culicoides sonorensis in semi‐field conditions

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
This study evaluated the efficacy of larvicide products against Culicoides sonorensis populations under controlled semi‐field conditions. Larvicide efficacy against C. sonorensis declined over time, in different environmental conditions. In particular, precipitation and habitat disturbance influenced residual performance. Abstract BACKGROUND Culicoides
