Abstract:Treatment of livestock with endectocides such as ivermectin is viewed as a complementary vector control approach to address residual transmission of malaria. However, efficacy of this treatment may vary between animal species. Hence, our purpose was to investigate the effects of ivermectin treatments of common livestock species on life history traits of the opportunistic malaria vectorAnopheles coluzzii.Sheep, goats and pigs were treated using injectable veterinary ivermectin formulation at the species-specifi… Show more
