Objective The aim of the study was to monitor the insecticide susceptibility status of malaria
vectors in 12 sentinel districts of Tanzania. Methods WHO standard methods were used to …

Objective: To measure pyrethroid susceptibility in populations of malaria vectors in Tanzania
and to test the efficacy of LLINs/ITNs and insecticide residues on sprayed wall substrates in …

Background Vector control is an effective way of reducing malaria transmission. The main
vector control methods include the use of insecticide-treated bed nets and indoor residual …

Background Increasing pyrethroid resistance in malaria vectors has been reported in
western Kenya where long lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying …

Objective To measure pyrethroid susceptibility in populations of malaria vectors and
nuisance‐biting mosquitoes in Tanzania and to test the biological efficacy of current …

The development of insecticide resistance is a threat to the control of malaria in Africa. We
report the findings of a national survey carried out in Tanzania in 2011 to monitor the …

Background Pyrethroid insecticide-treated mosquito nets are massively being scaled-up for
malaria prevention particularly in children under five years of age and pregnant mothers in …

Abstract Background Control of the Anopheline mosquito vectors of malaria by use of
insecticides has been shown to impact on both morbidity and mortality due to this disease …

Background Malaria vector control using insecticide-based approaches has proven to be an
effective strategy. However, widespread insecticide resistance among malaria vector …

Scale-up of the main vector control interventions, residual insecticides sprayed on walls or
structures and/or impregnated in bed nets, together with prompt diagnosis and effective …
