Sand Flies and Their Microbiota
Parasitologia, 2022 Sand flies are a significant public health concern in many parts of the world where they are known to transmit agents of several zoonotic diseases to humans, such as leishmaniasis. Vector control remains a key component of many anti-leishmaniasis programs and probably will remain so until an effective vaccine becomes available.

Porcisia transmission by prediuresis of sand flies
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2022 Parasites of the genus Porcisia, together with the genus Endotrypanum, form a sister clade to the species-rich and medically important genus Leishmania. Both Porcisia species, P. hertigi and P. deanei, are dixenous parasites of Neotropical porcupines.

Do Permethrin-Treated Screens Repel Sand Flies from Entering Houses ? [PDF]
Tropicultura, 2000 The effects of permethrin-treated screens on sand flies entering treated houses were evaluated in Marigat area of Baringo District, Kenya. Screens treated with 0.50 g/m2 a. i. of permethrin 20 % E.C. were fitted inside houses and retreated every 6 months
