Title: Response of the mosquito Culex pipiens molestus in the Amman area of Jordan to certain insecticides. Author: Nazer IK, Al-Azzeh TK. Journal: J Am Mosq Control Assoc; 1985 Jun; 1(2):178-80. PubMed ID: 3880229. Abstract: The response of adult females of the mosquito Culex pipiens molestus to six insecticides was evaluated. Adults were collected from two locations in the Amman area from May to October 1983. The F1 generation was exposed to paper-impregnated insecticides using WHO test kits. At both locations, the most toxic insecticides were permethrin, propoxur and ferpropathrin. Malathion, dieldrin and DDT were far less effective.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
