Long‐term impact of exposure to <scp>Royal Guard</scp>, a <scp>pyriproxyfen</scp>‐based bed net, on pyrethroid‐resistant malaria vectors from <scp>Cameroon</scp> using <scp>DNA</scp>‐based metabolic resistance markers
This study revealed that although pyrethroid-resistant mosquitoes have higher ability to survive and live longer after exposure to Royal Guard, this net significantly affects their lifespan, blood-feeding ability and interestingly reduces their fecundity/fertility. © 2025 The Author(s).
