Pesticides have a role in public health as part of sustainable integrated mosquito management. Other components of such management include surveillance, source reduction or prevention, biological control, repellents, traps, and pesticide-resistance management. We assess the future use of mosquito control pesticides in view of niche markets, incentives for new product development, Environmental ...

Background: Dengue, chikungunya, and Zika viruses are emerging infectious disease threats wherever suitable vectors, hosts, and habitat are present. The aim of the present study was to use the bioagent transport and environmental modeling system (BioTEMS) to identify the potential for arbovirus-infected Aedes species to invade the Chabahar area in southeastern Iran. Methods: ArcGIS geospatial a...

background: mosquitoes transmit several diseases to human. there are several measures for control of larvae. as part of integrated vector management (ivm) program, the utility of floating layers of polystyrene beads (eps) is a po­ten­tial alternative in habitats of mosquito larva. eps beads prevent oviposition of mosquito as well as killing the im­ma­ture stages by forming a tick layer on the w...

Mosquito borne diseases are prevalent in more than 100 countries across the world, infecting over 700,000,000 people every year globally. Prevention of man mosquito contact is indispensable for protection from mosquito borne diseases. There has been a paradigm shift towards botanicals to overcome the problems associated with the use of synthetic compounds in mosquito management. DDT and BHC dom...
