Efficacy of Seed Oils From <i>Azadirachta indica</i> and <i>Schinus molle</i> and Their Combination Against <i>Anopheles gambiae</i> s.l. [PDF]
Due to the increasing resistance to synthetic insecticides and the proliferation of resistant strains of malaria vectors, plant‐derived essential oils (EOs) are gaining prominence as an alternative for controlling Anopheles gambiae s.l. larvae.

The Effectiveness of Dengue Vector Control: A Meta-Review. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Background Dengue vector control plays an important role in reducing the burden of dengue infection. This study aimed to summarise the evidence of published systematic reviews on the efficacy of dengue vector control interventions. Methods Systematic reviews of cluster randomised controlled trials and randomised controlled trials in ...

Temephos Resistance in Prevention of Dengue Cases: Literature Review
Dengue is an acute disease caused by bites from the Aedes aegypti mosquito. The decrease in the rate of dengue cases is due to the control of larval vectors using larvicide intervention. But overuse can result in resistant vectors.

Assessment of the genotoxic potential of temephos
Genotoxic effects of pesticides are of great concern for public health due to the fact that they are widely used for both domestic and industrial purposes. Temephos is a member of organophosphorus pesticides, which is the most widely used group of chemicals against both agricultural and domestic insects.

Resistance to the larvicide temephos and altered egg and larval surfaces characterize salinity-tolerant Aedes aegypti. [PDF]
Aedes aegypti, the principal global vector of arboviral diseases and previously considered to oviposit and undergo preimaginal development only in fresh water, has recently been shown to be capable of developing in coastal brackish water containing up to

Water use practices limit the effectiveness of a temephos-based Aedes aegypti larval control program in Northern Argentina. [PDF]
A five-year citywide control program based on regular application of temephos significantly reduced Aedes aegypti larval indices but failed to maintain them below target levels in Clorinda, northern Argentina. Incomplete surveillance coverage and reduced

Abstract The biological larvicide Bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (Bti) is used worldwide to control reproduction of mosquitoes in freshwater habitats. However, its impact on the ecosystem including nontarget species is often unclear. In addition, it is unknown how Bti larvicide may interact with local mosquito predators to shape oviposition ...
