The impact of insecticide decay on the rate of insecticide resistance evolution for monotherapies and mixtures
as insecticides decay, they can impose increasing selection pressures for resistance with reduced ability to control the target insect populations. The optimal frequency with which decaying insecticides should be replenished is an important policy consideration.
