Insecticidal efficacy of residual spraying with deltamethrin–clothianidin (Fludora® Fusion) in Papua New Guinea
The duration of insecticidal efficacy of Fludora<sup>®</sup> Fusion (M24h > 80%) was an average of 6 months in these field conditions but was highly variable and depended significantly on surface parameters. RS with Fludora<sup>®</sup> Fusion could be a valuable addition to insecticide-treated nets (ITNs) to control malaria in PNG. However, frequent reapplication may be required depending on surface properties and location. Achieving consistent target application rates is critical to achieve maximum duration of insecticidal efficacy.
