According to the Journal of Vector Ecology (2012 p37) stated that “The management of insecticide resistance among malaria vectors needs urgent attention if insecticide-treated materials can continue to be used for malaria control.” Metarhizium anisopliae‚ a fungal pathogen of terrestrial arthropods‚ kills the aquatic larvae
