Efficacy of Insecticide Treated Nets against Mixed Population of Mosquitoes at Dayalbagh-Agra
In the present investigation, we have reported the efficacy of deltamethrin treated nets against the mixed population of mosquitoes (Culex quinquefas-ciatus, Anopheles stephensi and Aedes aegypti). Mosquitoes are foremost in man's war against insects. Mosquitoes are responsible for spreading serious diseases like malaria, filariasis dengue, chikungu-nya etc. Anopheles species are the most impor...
متن کاملLoss of Household Protection from Use of Insecticide-Treated Nets against Pyrethroid-Resistant Mosquitoes, Benin
Pyrethroid resistance is becoming widespread in Anopheles gambiae mosquitoes, coinciding with expanded use of insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) throughout Africa. To investigate whether nets in use are still protective, we conducted household trials in northern and southern Benin, where An. gambiae mosquitoes are susceptible and resistant, respectively, to pyrethroids. Rooms were fitted with wind...
متن کاملThe Impact of Pyrethroid Resistance on the Efficacy of Insecticide-Treated Bed Nets against African Anopheline Mosquitoes: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND Pyrethroid insecticide-treated bed nets (ITNs) help contribute to reducing malaria deaths in Africa, but their efficacy is threatened by insecticide resistance in some malaria mosquito vectors. We therefore assessed the evidence that resistance is attenuating the effect of ITNs on entomological outcomes. METHODS AND FINDINGS We included laboratory and field studies of African malar...
متن کاملInsecticide-Treated Nets and Protection against Insecticide-Resistant Malaria Vectors in Western Kenya
Insecticide resistance might reduce the efficacy of malaria vector control. In 2013 and 2014, malaria vectors from 50 villages, of varying pyrethroid resistance, in western Kenya were assayed for resistance to deltamethrin. Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLIN) were distributed to households at universal coverage. Children were recruited into 2 cohorts, cleared of malaria-causing parasit...
متن کاملPreventing Childhood Malaria in Africa by Protecting Adults from Mosquitoes with Insecticide-Treated Nets
BACKGROUND Malaria prevention in Africa merits particular attention as the world strives toward a better life for the poorest. Insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) represent a practical means to prevent malaria in Africa, so scaling up coverage to at least 80% of young children and pregnant women by 2010 is integral to the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). Targeting individual protection to vulner...
متن کاملInsecticide-Treated Nets Can Reduce Malaria Transmission by Mosquitoes Which Feed Outdoors
Insecticide treated nets (ITNs) represent a powerful means for controlling malaria in Africa because the mosquito vectors feed primarily indoors at night. The proportion of human exposure that occurs indoors, when people are asleep and can conveniently use ITNs, is therefore very high. Recent evidence suggests behavioral changes by malaria mosquito populations to avoid contact with ITNs by feed...
