Diversity of aggressive Aedinian fauna and susceptibility of Aedes albopictus (Skuse, 1894) to Ageratum conyzoides L., 1753 and Chromolaena odorata L. Robinson, 1970 (Asteraceae) essential oils in some towns from southern Cameroon

Abstract Background: A good knowledge of Aedes diversity and their biting cycle is necessary for better planning of vector control interventions against arboviruses diseases. This study aims to determine the diversity of Aedes and the biting cycle of Aedes albopictus in suburban  as well as urban areas of Douala, Kribi, and Ayos to propose a method for vector control based on Ageratum conyzoides L., 1753 and Chromolaena odorata L., 1970 (Asteraceae) essential oil. Methods: Larvae were sam...
