Sand Flies and Their Control Methods

open access: yesTurkish Journal of Parasitology, 2017
The main aim of managing arthropod vectors that carry the disease agents is interrupting the infection cycle. Therefore, the management of the disease implies that all precautions related to all elements (i.e., human, arthropod vector, and reservoir) in the infection cycle need to be taken.
