Manual for Indoor Residual Spraying in Urban Areas for Aedes aegypti Control

cover

In the absence of a specific treatment and vaccines against dengue, chikungunya, and Zika, it is necessary to make greater use of the available alternatives for improving control of the Aedes aegypti mosquito vector. The Manual for Indoor Residual Spraying in Urban Areas for Aedes aegypti Control addresses the limitations of the current vector control strategies and seeks to standardize the application of indoor residual spraying in urban areas. This publication is intended not only for operational personnel and middle and senior management of programs responsible for the prevention and control of Aedes-borne diseases, but also for the academic community involved in Aedes research, private pest control personnel, and the general public. Also available in French, Portuguese, and Spanish.
