Background Localized mosquito larval habitat management and the use of larvicides have
been proposed as important control tools in integrated malaria vector management …

Spatial and temporal variations in the distribution of anopheline larval habitats and land use
and land cover (LULC) changes can influence malaria transmission intensity. This …

Background & objectives: Malaria resurgence in highland regions of East Africa has been on
increase. The spatio-temporal distribution of larval habitats of malaria vectors determines the …

Information on the spatial relationships between disease vectors and environmental factors
is fundamental to vector-borne disease control. Although it is well known that mosquito …

Background Anopheles mosquitoes impose an immense burden on the African population
in terms of both human health and comfort. Uganda, in particular, boasts one of the highest …

Background As the ecology of mosquito larvae can be complex there is need to develop a
rational framework for undertaking larval ecological studies. Local environmental …

The increasing spread of multi-drug resistant malaria in African highlands has highlighted
the importance of malaria suppression through vector control. Its historical success has …

Background Larval control is of paramount importance in the reduction of malaria vector
abundance and subsequent disease transmission reduction. Understanding larval habitat …

Background A sharp rise in the malaria mortality rate has been observed recently in western
Kenya. Malaria is transmitted by mosquito vectors. Malaria control strategies can be more …

Background Suitability of environmental conditions determines a species distribution in
space and time. Understanding and modelling the ecological niche of mosquito disease …
