Chlorfenapyr-pyrethroid nets for pyrethroid-resistant malaria vectors: efficacy, resistance risks, and policy implications

Global Health Action
The Global Technical Strategy for Malaria 2016–2030 aims to reduce malaria incidence and mortality by 90%, yet widespread pyrethroid resistance among major malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa threatens this goal.

Characterizing the escalation of pyrethroid resistance and its impact on bed nets efficacy alongside molecular basis in Anopheles funestus from Cameroon [PDF]

Malaria Journal
Background Malaria prevention still relies greatly on vector control interventions. However, increasing levels of resistance to pyrethroids across Africa have significantly reduced the efficacy of pyrethroid-based interventions leading to an increase of ...

Evaluation of resistance of human head lice to pyrethroid insecticides: A meta-analysis study

Heliyon, 2023
Introduction: Pediculosis is one of the most common annoying infections caused by parasitic lice in humans. Pyrethroids are one of the main insecticides used to treat this infection.

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).

Pyrethroid insecticides maintain repellent effect on knock-down resistant populations of Aedes aegypti mosquitoes. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Pyrethroid-treated clothing is commonly worn for protection against mosquitoes; pyrethroids are both insecticides and repellents. Pyrethroid resistance has become increasingly common in Aedes aegypti, the vector of dengue, Zika, and other arboviruses ...

Insecticide resistance in malaria and arbovirus vectors in Papua New Guinea, 2017–2022

Parasites & Vectors, 2022
Background Insecticide resistance (IR) monitoring is essential for evidence-based control of mosquito-borne diseases. While widespread pyrethroid resistance in Anopheles and Aedes species has been described in many countries, data for Papua New Guinea ...

Selection for resistance to pyrethroids in the predator Orius laevigatus

Pest Management Science, 2021
Abstract BACKGROUND Insecticide resistance in the natural enemies of pest species is a very desirable trait. It allows better integration of biological control with the synthetic and natural compounds applied to manage certain pests, especially secondary pest outbreaks ...
