Controlling mosquitoes with semiochemicals: a review [PDF]
Parasites & Vectors, 2020 AbstractThe use of semiochemicals in odour-based traps for surveillance and control of vector mosquitoes is deemed a new and viable component for integrated vector management programmes. Over 114 semiochemicals have been identified, yet implementation of these for management of infectious diseases such as malaria, dengue, chikungunya and Rift Valley ...

Genetic Control of Mosquitoes [PDF]
Annual Review of Entomology, 2014 Genetics can potentially provide new, species-specific, environmentally friendly methods for mosquito control. Genetic control strategies aim either to suppress target populations or to introduce a harm-reducing novel trait. Different approaches differ considerably in their properties, especially between self-limiting strategies, where the ...
