Metabolic Resistance in Permethrin-Resistant Florida Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae)
Insects, 2021 Aedes aegypti is the principal mosquito vector for many arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) including dengue, chikungunya, and Zika. In the United States, excessive permethrin use has led to a high frequency of resistance in mosquitoes.

Pseudoresistance to permethrin in scabies
The Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2023 Reports of permethrin resistance of Sarcoptes scabiei var. hominis are emerging. We propose that this may be pseudoresistance. The resistance is due to inadequate counselling by physicians, incorrect treatment (insufficient quantity of permethrin; too short length of treatment), and poor adherence and compliance by patients.
