During the period from January 2022 to August 2022, various breeding sites of mosquitoes Ambikapur urban area were surveyed, all characteristics studied and analyzed. Mosquito larvae collected different selected identified. The lavae found places belong Culex, Aedes genera.

Larviciding to control malaria was assessed in rural areas with extensive seasonal flooding. Larval and adult mosquitoes and malaria incidence were surveyed routinely in four 100-km(2) areas either side of the Gambia River. Baseline data were collected in 2005. Microbial larvicide was applied to all water bodies by hand application with water-dispersible granular formulations and corn granules ...

Although most algae are nutritious food for mosquito larvae, some species kill the larvae when ingested in large quantities. Cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) that kill larvae do so by virtue of toxicity. While blue-green algae toxins may offer possibilities for delivery as larvicides, the toxicity of live blue-green algae does not seem consistent enough for live algae to be useful for mosquito ...

BACKGROUND & OBJECTIVES In India, temephos and fenthion are used as larvicides in fresh and polluted waters. Since use of same insecticide may precipitate resistant, as an alternative bioefficacy of pirimiphos-methyl--an organophosphorus insecticide was evaluated against immatures of Anopheles and Culex species in different breeding habitats in District Ghaziabad (U.P.) and Goa. METHODS Labor...

The control/eradication of culicines is receivi-ng increasag attention, since these mosquitoes are not only carriers of important diseases, such as filariasis, yellow fever, haemorrhagic fever, but have also been incrimtnated as important carriers of other arbo viruses of man and‘animals. F’urthermore, these mosquitoes are a great nuisance since they feed on man with great avidity. Control of ....

Mosquitoes act as a vector for most of the life threatening diseases like malaria, yellow fever, dengue fever, chikungunya ferver, filariasis, encephalitis, West Nile Virus infection, etc. Under the Integrated Mosquito Management (IMM), emphasis was given on the application of alternative strategies in mosquito control. The continuous application of synthetic insecticides causes development of ...

during a search of burrows for the purpose of capturing rodents in 1972, a number of soil samples were inspected for the collection of sand fly larvae. in this study, a total of 472 plastic bags of soil samples were collected from different depths of 30 rodent burrows. fourteen of these samples were found positive, from which 27 larvae were removed. most of the larvae were found in the depths o...

Mosquito control by pesticides remains the main intervention to reduce burden of mosquito nuisance and mosquito-borne diseases. In control, larviciding application environmentally friendly larvicides has been one routine operations. Larvicides based on microbial agents insect growth regulators (IGRs) account for most available products. Ones that are formulated using S-methoprene ranged from mi...
