title: Susceptibility status of Aedes albopictus to three topically applied adulticides.
abstract: The baseline susceptibility of Aedes albopictus (Sabah strain) to malathion was determined. Both laboratory-colonized and field-collected Ae. albopictus at Harris County, TX are resistant to malathion but susceptible to Scourge. The acute toxicity of bendiocarb to Ae. albopictus is confounded by its rapid knockdown and delayed recovery syndrome of poisoning.
