Simulium larvae susceptibility to temephos and the effect of 10 weeks of treatment of the Mbende tributary in the Nkam-Wouri River drainage of Cameroon on larval density and adult fly biting rates
Simulium larvae showed susceptibility to temephos. Clearance of larvae from traps and identified natural substrates, and a significant reduction in the Simulium biting rates were observed.
