- Title
Insecticide susceptibility status of Phlebotomus (Paraphlebotomus) sergenti and Phlebotomus (Phlebotomus) papatasi in endemic foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Morocco.
- Abstract
The article presents the findings on a study on the insecticide susceptibility status of phlebotomus or paraphlebotomus sergenti and phlebotomus or phlebotomus (Ph.) papatasi in endemic foci of cutaneous leishmaniasis in Morocco. It also discusses the methodology of the study. It mentions that cutaneous leishmaniasis is transmitted by phlebotomus sergenti and Ph. papatasi. It informs that vector control is mainly based on environmental management but indoor residual spraying with synthetic pyrethroids is applied in many foci of Leishmania tropica.
