Long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) interventions can
reduce malaria transmission by targeting mosquitoes when they feed upon sleeping …

Physiological resistance and behavioral responses of mosquito vectors to insecticides are
critical aspects of the chemical-based disease control equation. The complex interaction …

Since the implementation of Roll Back Malaria, the widespread use of insecticide-treated
nets (ITNs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS) is thought to have played a major part in the …

The understanding of malaria vector species in association with their bionomic traits is vital
for targeting malaria interventions and measuring effectiveness. Many entomological studies …

Background Effective targeting and evaluation of interventions that protect against adult
malaria vectors requires an understanding of how gaps in personal protection arise. An …

A shift towards early morning biting behavior of the major malaria vector Anopheles funestus
have been observed in two villages in south Benin following distribution of long-lasting …

Mosquito oviposition site selection is essential for vector population dynamics and malaria
epidemiology. Irrigated rice cultivations provide ideal larval habitats for malaria mosquitoes …

The success of mosquito-based malaria control is dependent upon susceptible bionomic
traits in local malaria vectors. It is crucial to have accurate and reliable methods to determine …

Background Long-lasting insecticide-treated nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS)
have greatly reduced malaria transmission in sub-Saharan Africa, but are threatened by …

Protecting individuals and households against mosquito bites with long-lasting insecticidal
nets (LLINs) or indoor residual spraying (IRS) can suppress entire populations of unusually …
