Malaria infection in mosquitoes decreases the personal protection offered by permethrin-treated bednets
BACKGROUND: Insecticides targeting adult mosquitoes are the main way of controlling malaria. They work not only by killing mosquitoes, but also by repelling and irritating them. Indeed their repellent action gives valuable personal protection against biting mosquitoes. In the context of malaria cont...
