Sustainability of vector control strategies in the Gran Chaco Region: current challenges and possible approaches

open access: yesMemorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2009
Sustainability has become a focal point of the international agenda. At the heart of its range of distribution in the Gran Chaco Region, the elimination of Triatoma infestans has failed, even in areas subject to intensive professional vector control ...

Assessment of insecticide use practices in licensed pest control operators in North Carolina

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
A statewide survey of 105 licensed North Carolina pesticide operators found ants, mosquitoes, and aphids as top target pests, pyrethroids as the dominant insecticide class (68%), and limited resistance monitoring, establishing a baseline for future insecticide resistance management and outreach.

Genetics of resistance of houseflies (Musca domestica L.) to pyrethroids. I. Knock‐down resistance

open access: yes, 1977
Knock-down resistance in Musca domestica, which provides cross-resistance between DDT and pyrethroids, has been genetically separated from three different resistant populations. After careful purification of each factor, the cross-over rates between them

Comparative behavioral ecotoxicology of Inland Silverside larvae exposed to pyrethroids across a salinity gradient [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
Pyrethroids, a class of commonly used insecticides, are frequently detected in aquatic environments, including estuaries. The influence that salinity has on organism physiology and the partitioning of hydrophobic chemicals, such as pyrethroids, has ...

Estimating human exposure to pyrethroids’ mixtures from biomonitoring data using physiologically based pharmacokinetic modeling

open access: yes, 2021
International audienceHuman biomonitoring data provide evidence to exposure of environmental chemicals. Physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) modelling together with an adequate exposure scenario allows to transpose measured concentrations of ...

Comparison of nonchemical, organic and synthetic Varroa destructor control strategies in honey bee colonies: effects on parasite load, colony strength and health

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Combining intensive drone‐brood removal with brood interruption provided the most effective and consistent seasonal Varroa control. Abstract BACKGROUND Varroa destructor remains the most significant biotic threat to honey bee colonies, and increasing resistance to synthetic acaricides necessitates alternative control strategies.

Pyrethroids in abiotic and biotic environmental matrices

open access: yes, 2011
Synthetic pyrethroids form the main class of synthetic organic insecticides, which are applied in agriculture, household, and public health. Synthetic pyrethroids account form more than 30% of insecticide use worldwide, thereby they gradual replace ...

Proteo‐transcriptomic insights into the venom composition of the ectoparasitoid Eupelmus urozonus

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Integrated venom‐gland transcriptomics and venom proteomics of Eupelmus urozonus identified 316 venom proteins, including 75 secreted candidates, revealing diverse hydrolases, proteases/inhibitors and many uncharacterized effectors. Abstract BACKGROUND Ectoparasitoid venoms are ‘cocktails’ of bioactive molecules injected during oviposition to paralyze ...

Pyrethroids in indoor air during application of various mosquito repellents: Occurrence, dissipation and potential exposure risk

open access: yes, 2016
Commercial mosquito repellents (MRs) are generally applied as mosquito coils, electric vaporizers (liquid and solid) or aerosol spray, with pyrethroids often being the active ingredients.

On‐farm comparison of aerial and chemigation application methods for Striacosta albicosta (lepidoptera: Noctuidae) management in corn using pyrethroid and diamide insecticides

open access: yesPest Management Science, EarlyView.
Aerial applications deposited more insecticide on tassels than on ear level (36.4% vs. 19.8%). Across both application methods, chlorantraniliprole minimized ear injury, while bifenthrin provided moderate control. Effective management of S. albicosta requires delivering sufficient insecticide concentration to the target site and achieving adequate ...
