Two decades of insecticide resistance in Benin: a retrospective analysis of evolution and drivers
First observed with organochlorines around the 1960s, and later with pyrethroids in 1999, insecticide resistance in mosquito vectors has continued to intensify. Over the last 20 years, it has gradually expanded, now affecting all ecological environments in Benin. In this context, the National Malaria Control Programme should prioritize the use of new mosquito nets for future vector control campaigns in Benin.
