Abstract

Aedes mosquitoes are crucial vectors of many significant viral infections. The intensifying and convoluted threat of dengue on a global scale warrants enhanced approaches to mosquito control. This short communication aims to provide an overview of the various types of environmental, biological, plant-based and chemical control strategies employed worldwide to curb dengue outbreaks which are worthy of reflection. The use of synthetic insecticides as the predominant method to reduce the spread of dengue has been widely adopted, albeit with caution. The prolonged dependency and repetitive usage of chemical insecticides has been associated with negative ecological and physiological dangers, necessitating the pursuit of alternative strategies to augment existing methods of mosquito control. This review aims to discuss the effectiveness of existing insecticides and the potential use of natural larvicides of botanical origin against dengue using literature sourced from electronic databases. Although many studies have utilised plant-based derivatives as naturally occurring pesticides, their efficacy needs to be further investigated which forms the rationale behind this review.

登革热媒介控制方法：现有选择和前进方向

伊蚊是许多重大病毒感染的重要媒介。登革热在全球范围内的威胁日益加剧，错综复杂，因此有必要加强对蚊子的控制。这篇简短的通讯旨在概述世界各地为遏制登革热爆发而采用的各种类型的环境、生物、植物和化学控制策略，这些策略值得反思。使用合成杀虫剂作为减少登革热传播的主要方法已被广泛采用，尽管要谨慎。化学杀虫剂的长期依赖和重复使用与负面的生态和生理危险有关，因此必须寻求替代策略来加强现有的蚊子控制方法。本综述旨在利用电子数据库中的文献讨论现有杀虫剂的有效性以及植物来源的天然杀幼虫剂对抗登革热的潜在用途。尽管许多研究已经将植物衍生物用作天然存在的杀虫剂，但它们的功效需要进一步研究，这构成了本综述的基本原理。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Sustainability Science and Management is an Open-Access and peer-reviewed journal aims to publish scientific articles related to sustainable science; i.e. an interaction between natural sciences, social science, technologies and management for sustainable development and wise use of resources. We particularly encourage manuscripts that discuss contemporary research that can be used directly or indirectly in addressing critical issues and sharing of advanced knowledge and best practices in sustainable development.
