Time and again I have been reading about spike in dengue and chikunguniya cases and measures taken by municipal authorities in the form of fogging for controlling responsible factor like mosquito. Is fogging effective enough to curtail the mosquito multiplication during favourable seasons?
Some research wre conducted in Iran showed that the combination of fungi entomopathogen with chemical insecticide such as Spinozad are useful for control of muscuids
still we are using malathion or synthetic pyr. for this purpose but i am fully agree with Masoud now time come s we have to test or use entomopathogens for effective control
you can use syntheses of pyrethroids in standing water as you can also use entomopathogenic Beauveria bassiana and Metarrizium sp, gave interesting results
Please visit website http://www.nvbdcp.gov.in/ all guidelines formulations of insecticide using in fogging in India are available on the website.
