Spinosad as an effective larvicide for control of Aedes albopictus and Aedes aegypti, vectors of dengue in southern Mexico
BACKGROUND: Field trials were conducted during the wet and dry seasons in periurban
and semi‐rural cemeteries in southern Mexico to determine the efficacy of a suspension
concentrate formulation of spinosad (Tracer 480SC) on the inhibition of development of
Aedes albopictus L. and Ae. aegypti Skuse. For this, oviposition traps were treated with
spinosad (1 or 5 mg L− 1), Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis (Bti, VectoBac 12AS), a
sustained release formulation of temephos and a water control. RESULTS: Ae. albopictus …
