Evaluation of pirimiphos-methyl (50% EC) against the immatures of Anopheles stephensi/An. culicifacies (malaria vectors) and Culex quinquefasciatus (vector of bancroftian filariasis) [PDF]
Background & objectives : In India, temephos and fenthion are used as larvicides in fresh andpolluted waters. Since use of same insecticide may precipitate resistant, as an alternative bioefficacyof pirimiphos-methyl—an organophosphorus insecticide was ...
