Reduction in Aedes aegypti Population After a Year-Long Application of Targeted Sterile Insect Releases in the West Valley Region of Southern California

Insects
Aedes aegypti is of great public health concern because of its vectorial capacity to transmit various arboviruses such as Zika, yellow fever, dengue, and chikungunya. In California, its expanding geographic distribution has been unrestrained.

Impacts of differential mosquito control treatment regimens on insecticide susceptibility status of Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)

SN Applied Sciences, 2022
Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus) is an invasive mosquito species and notable vector of several pathogens in the USA. Their cryptic and anthropophilic nature puts this species in close association with humans, where they can also be a nuisance.

Recombinant bacteria for mosquito control [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Biology, 2003
SUMMARY Bacterial insecticides have been used for the control of nuisance and vector mosquitoes for more than two decades. Nevertheless, due primarily to their high cost and often only moderate efficacy, these insecticides remain of limited use in tropical countries where mosquito-borne diseases are prevalent.

Mosquito Control: A Review [PDF]

, 2015
Mosquitoes are small insect which comprises the family culicidae. They are World wide except for Antartica and polar or subpolar regions of the World. Mosquitoes are vectors of many diseases such as malaria, yellow fever, West Nile Virus, dengue fever, filariasis, and some arboviruses. They are regarded as the most deadliest animal family ever known in

Mosquito ecology and control of malaria [PDF]

Journal of Animal Ecology, 2012
AbstractMosquitoes transmit some of the most important infectious diseases of man including malaria that today kills around 0·6–1·2 million people a year, the majority children in low‐income countries.There is increasing realisation that no single intervention is likely to halt malaria and a multipronged approach is needed including vector control.Very

Genetic Control Of Malaria Mosquitoes [PDF]

Trends in Parasitology, 2016
Experiments demonstrating the feasibility of genetically modifying mosquito vectors to impair their ability to transmit the malaria parasite have been known for well over a decade. However, means to spread resistance or population control genes into wild mosquito populations remains an unsolved challenge.
