[larvivorous capacity of barbus pobeguini and possibility of using this in the fight against anopheles gambiae s.l]. | permanent breeding sites for anopheles gambiae s.l. were found to occur in the urban area of ouagadougou and to have some importance in the maintenance of vector populations. in these breeding places barbus pobeguini was found widespread and larvivorous as indicated by the presence of remnants of a. gambiae in its stomach contents. the use of b. pobeguini would avoid the introduction of non-local larvivorous fishes. a series of trials carried out in laboratory conditions with b. pobeguini of dif ... | 1988 | 3271991 |
studies on insecticide susceptibility of anopheles gambiae s.1. and culex quinquefasciatus in the area of ouagadougou, burkina faso (west africa). | tests to evaluate the susceptibility level in anopheles gambiae s.1. and culex quinquefasciatus from ouagadougou and two nearby villages have been carried out. anopheles gambiae s.1. larvae from ouagadougou showed complete susceptibility to organophosphates and carbamates, and adults showed low level resistance to ddt. nine percent survival of adult an. gambiae s.1. to one hour exposure of 4% ddt was observed in samples from zaghtouli village while in those from koubri village, where dieldrin al ... | 1986 | 3507503 |
experimental formulations of bacillus sphaericus and b. thuringiensis israelensis against culex quinquefasciatus and anopheles gambiae (diptera: culicidae) in burkina faso. | efficacies of locally produced, sustained release granular formulations of bacillus sphaericus (bs) strain 2362 and b. thuringiensis israelensis (bti) were compared with commercial liquid concentrates of the same bacteria in cesspits and rain-filled puddles in ouagadougou, burkina faso. duration of control was dependent on the product, the transient nature of some sites, and the target mosquito larvae. bs granules applied at the rate of 3.0 g/m2 (30 kg/ha) reduced culex quinquefasciatus say 99% ... | 1999 | 10071494 |
laboratory and field efficacy of bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis and bacillus sphaericus against anopheles gambiae s.l. and culex quinquefasciatus in ouagadougou, burkina faso. | two wettable powders (bactimos and vectobac) and one flowable concentrate (teknar) of bacillus thuringiensis var. israelensis (b.t.i.) and primary powders of bacillus sphaericus isolates 1593 and 2362 were evaluated (laboratory) against field-collected larvae of anopheles gambiae s.l. and culex quinquefasciatus in ouagadougou, burkina faso. bactimos, vectobac and a corn-cob b.t.i. formulation (abg-6138g) were field tested against cx. quinquefasciatus and an. gambiae s.l. the isolates of b. sphae ... | 1987 | 3504891 |
