Abstract excerpt
Bed bug control highly depends on insecticides with a limited number of modes of action, especially since the global prevalence of pyrethroid resistance. De facto insecticide options against bed bugs in Japan are acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (AChEis) that consist of organophosphates and carbamates. However, the status of AChEi resistance and the mechanisms involved have not been ascertained. An amino acid...
