Estrategia para evitar el propagacíón en la reproducción del aedes aegypti en espacios periurbanos

Abstract

In the strategies to prevent the reproduction of Aedes aegypti in the life cycle, fumigation is used, the insecticide management in mosquito control, due to the influence that the environment has on the health of the human being, began with the use of DDT and Malathion, which caused resistance to the mosquito, also human damage, and impact on the environment. Objective: To determine the effectiveness of deltamethrin used in adult mosquitoes, as a strategy to prevent the propagation of Aedes aegypti reproduction in peri-urban spaces. Methods, the biological test of the bottle of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC is a strategy of the World Health Organization WHO, which uses intervening elements: Biological material, Insecticide, Bioassays. Mortality criteria: mortality exceeds 98%, there is susceptibility, mortality is between 90-97% suggests resistance should be performed 3 repetitions, mortality less than 90% resistance is confirmed. Results: The percentage of mortality of Aedes aegypti in the duration of 30 minutes that were exposed to Deltamethrin, with different lethal concentrations, Canton Arenillas resistance of 20.40%, canton resistance of 14.95%, Canton Huaquillas resistance of 10.46% . Conclusion: The fumigation strategy is a choice in the control of the adult Aedes aegypti mosquito for the prevention of vector diseases, and must be used in a responsible and precise way.
