	5.	Research Long term study on the effect of mollusciciding with niclosamide in stream habitats on the transmission of schistosomiasis mansoni after community-based chemotherapy in Makueni District, Kenya Henry C Kariuki, Henry Madsen, John H Ouma, Anthony E Butterworth, David W Dunne, Mark Booth, Gachuhi Kimani, Joseph K Mwatha, Eric Muchiri, Birgitte J Vennervald Parasites & Vectors 2013, 6:107 (18 April 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary This study compares reinfection of people by Schistosoma mansoni over a 4 year period after treatment with praziquantel between two areas, one where the chemotherapy was followed by regular mollusciciding in transmission sites (Intervention) and one where no other control measures were implemented after the initial chemotherapy (Non-intervention area). The study shows that mollusciciding significantly reduces reinfection. Image: Checking site for Biomphalaria pfeifferi.
	6.	Research Dose–response tests and semi-field evaluation of lethal and sub-lethal effects of slow release pyriproxyfen granules (Sumilarv^®0.5G) for the control of the malaria vectors Anopheles gambiae sensu lato Oscar Mbare, Steven W Lindsay, Ulrike Fillinger Malaria Journal 2013, 12:94 (14 March 2013) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Research has shown that larviciding can be an effective tool for integrated malaria vector control, but the uptake of this intervention has been hampered by the need to re-apply larvicides frequently. There is a need to explore persistent, environmentally friendly larvicides for malaria vector control and the efficacy of a 0.5% pyriproxyfen granule was assessed here for the control of major malaria vectors in sub-Saharan Africa.

	13.	Methodology Electric nets and sticky materials for analysing oviposition behaviour of gravid malaria vectors Sisay Dugassa, Jenny M Lindh, Steve J Torr, Florence Oyieke, Steven W Lindsay, Ulrike Fillinger Malaria Journal 2012, 11:374 (14 November 2012) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary A square of four e-nets with yellow sticky boards as a collection device can be used for quantifying the numbers of mosquitoes approaching a small oviposition site. Shiny sticky surfaces attract gravid females possibly because they are visually mistaken as aquatic habitats. These materials might be developed further as gravid traps.
