Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE: The global resurgence of the common bed bug, Cimex lectularius L. (Hemiptera: Cimicidae), is driven by widespread insecticide resistance. In sub-Saharan Africa, intensive use of pyrethroids for malaria vector control may exert collateral selection pressure on bed bug populations. This study aimed to assess the phenotypic susceptibility of Nigerian C. lectularius populations to four major classes of...
