Susceptibility Status of Aedes Aegypti Against Bendiokarb Insecticide

Abstract

Aedes aegypti L., an important vector of dengue hemorrhagic fever, were collected from two locations within Cikole, Gunung Puyuh, Warudoyong, Citamiang, Cibeureum, Baros, and Lembur Situ districts in.Sukabumi City, Indonesia. The laboratory-reared, F2 progeny of each field population were tested for their susceptibility using paper impregnated with the WHO recommended doses of Bendiokarb 0.1%. Eight populations were moderately resistant to bendiokarb These results  must  be  considered  in  future  control  programs  for  Ae.  aegypti,  because organophosphates cunently  are for adult  control  in  most  countries  in most areas of  Indonesia
