Procedures for the Diagnostic Dose Resistance Test Kits for Mosquitoes, BodyLice, and Beetle Pests of Stored Products

摘要

In military operations, the control of medically important insect pests (such amosquitoes, body lice, and beetle pests of stored products) is essential in preventing disease and the loss of food. The use of effective insecticides will maximize the control success. Public health insect pests' resistance to insecticides has been documented from around the world. The possibility of resistance affecting control should be considered before any disease vector control operation. This technical guide assists entomologists and preventive medicine specialists working under the supervision of an entomologist in using the diagnostic dose resistance test kits for several medically important insect pests.
