Entomological studies on the impact of a small-scale irrigation scheme on malaria transmission around Ziway, Ethiopia
TL;DR: In this article, the authors evaluated the impact of a small-scale irrigation scheme on the level of malaria transmission in a semi-arid area, and found that due to poorly maintained irrigation structures, the irrigation scheme created conducive breeding grounds for malaria vector species, particularly during the dry season.

Malaria mosquitoes acquire and allocate cattle urine to enhance life history traits
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors assess whether An. arabiensis engage in puddling on cattle urine to obtain nutrients to improve life history traits, in a process known as "puddling".

TL;DR: Females actively imbibe cattle urine, and its main nitrogenous compound, urea, and allocate these resources according to life history trade-offs to flight, survival or reproduction, as a function of physiological state, which affects vectorial capacity by increasing daily survival and vector density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repellence and larvicidal effects of some selected plant extracts against adult Anopheles arabiensis and Aedes aegypti larvae under laboratory conditions
TL;DR: Ethanolic extracts of M. spicata and R. officinalis could be used as potential sources of repellents against An.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effective utilization period of long-lasting insecticide treated nets against Malaria vector mosquitoes and the species composition in North West Ethiopia
TL;DR: Evaluated the bioefficacy of long-lasting insecticide treated nets (LLITNs) over time and the species composition of Anopheles mosquitoes around Bahir Dar revealed that this species was the primary potential vector of malaria in the study area.
