The effectiveness of deltamethrin, S-bio-allethrin, and piperonyl butoxide 10% in eliminating Aedes in high-risk districts of dengue fever - Underlying Data

This study tested the effectiveness of a DAP mixture in eliminating Aedes mosquitoes in a high-risk dengue fever district. Aedes mosquitoes were found to be susceptible to deltamethrin. DAP was significantly more effective in killing mosquitoes indoors and outdoors compared to 0.5% deltamethrin. The effectiveness of 0.5% deltamethrin was greater indoors than outdoors. In conclusion, DAP effectively eliminated Aedes mosquitoes in both indoor and outdoor environments.
