Larvicidal Activity of Essential Oils From Species Against Strains of (Diptera: Culicidae) Resistant to Pyrethroids.

The continuous and indiscriminate use of insecticides has been responsible for the emergence of insecticide resistant vector insect populations, especially in . Thus, it is urgent to find natural insecticide compounds with novel mode of action for vector control. The goal of this study was to investigate the larvicidal activity of essential oils (EOs) from species against characterized as resistant and susceptible strains to pyrethroids.
