The present study was designed aiming at finding novel botanicals for controlling the vector
population. Objective was to evaluate the larvicidal and pupicidal efficacies of crude and …

Objective: A naturally occurring larvicidal compound is an alternative to eradication of Aedes
aegypti larvae. This compound is toxic to larvae but relatively safe for human. Rhizome of …

Mosquito control is facing a threat due to the emergence of resistance to synthetic
insecticides. Insecticides of botanical origin may serve as suitable alternative biocontrol …

Objective To evaluate the toxicity, predatory efficiency of Delonix elata (D. elata) and
Mesocyclops aspericornis (M. aspericornis) against dengue vector, Aedes aegypti (Ae …

Background: Aedes aegypti is the primary vector of dengue, a significant public health
problem in many countries. Controlling of Ae. aegypti is the biggest challenge in the …

Microbial control agents offer alternatives to chemical pest control, as they can be more
selective than chemical insecticides. The present study evaluates the mosquito larvicidal …
