Bacillus sphaericus as mosquito larvicide.
In Noorpur Shahan, a village in the outskirts of Islamabad, Bacillus sphaericus was tested to determine its efficacy against mosquito larvae. Since the creation of this new Islamabad district no mosquito control measure has been taken in the area and like so many other places in and around Islamabad, mosquito density is unusually high in this village. The efficacy of Bacillus sphaericus was studied upto seven weeks after its application and it gave good larval control.
