Insecticide Control of Vector-Borne Diseases: When Is Insecticide Resistance a Problem?

5 Aug 2010

Abstract excerpt

Many of the most dangerous human diseases are transmitted by insect vectors. After decades of repeated insecticide use, all of these vector species have demonstrated the capacity to evolve resistance to insecticides. Insecticide resistance is generally considered to undermine control of vector-transmitted diseases because it increases the number of vectors that survive the insecticide treatment. Disease control...
