Susceptibility Status of Aedes Aegypti Against Bendiokarb Insecticide

Aedes aegypti L., an important vector of dengue hemorrhagic fever, were collected from two locations within Cikole, Gunung Puyuh, Warudoyong, Citamiang, Cibeureum, Baros, and Lembur Situ districts in.Sukabumi City, Indonesia. The laboratory-reared, F2 progeny of each field population were tested for their susceptibility using paper impregnated with the WHO recommended doses of Bendiokarb 0.1%. Eight populations were moderately resistant to bendiokarb These results must be considered in future control programs for Ae. aegypti, because organophosphates cunently are for adult control in most countries in most areas of Indonesia
