Long-term trends in Anopheles gambiae insecticide resistance in Côte d’Ivoire [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2014 Background Malaria control is heavily dependent on the use of insecticides that target adult mosquito vectors via insecticide treated nets (ITNs) or indoor residual spraying (IRS). Four classes of insecticide are approved for IRS but only pyrethroids are

Insecticide Resistance in Fleas [PDF]
Insects, 2016 Fleas are the major ectoparasite of cats, dogs, and rodents worldwide and potential vectors of animal diseases. In the past two decades the majority of new control treatments have been either topically applied or orally administered to the host. Most reports concerning the development of insecticide resistance deal with the cat flea, Ctenocephalides ...

Phenotypic insecticide resistance status of the Culex pipiens complex: a European perspective
Parasites & Vectors, 2022 Background The common house mosquito Culex pipiens is known to be a major vector for West Nile virus. In order to decrease risks of West Nile virus outbreaks in Europe, insecticides and the bio-larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti) are ...

Development of Resistance to Pyrethroid in Culex pipiens pallens Population under Different Insecticide Selection Pressures. [PDF]
PLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2015 Current vector control programs are largely dependent on pyrethroids, which are the most commonly used and only insecticides recommended by the World Health Organization for insecticide-treated nets (ITNs).

The insecticide resistance status of malaria vectors in the Mekong region
Malaria Journal, 2008 Background Knowledge on insecticide resistance in target species is a basic requirement to guide insecticide use in malaria control programmes. Malaria transmission in the Mekong region is mainly concentrated in forested areas along the country borders ...
