Spatial distribution and insecticide resistance of Aedes mosquitoes in Osun State: implications for vector control
These findings highlight that while Aedes populations in the study area remain largely susceptible to conventional insecticides, early signals of resistance require proactive management by the state. Incorporating synergists into integrated vector control, alongside habitat surveillance and mapping, will be critical to sustaining insecticide effectiveness and reducing the burden of Aedes-borne diseases in Osun State and Nigeria at large.
