“…The limited use of insecticides to which resistance has developed, the use of mixtures of insecticides with unrelated mechanisms of action, and appropriate cultural practices may help in managing house fly insecticide resistance. Insect growth regulators, biopesticides, as well as appropriate cultural practices, should be included in integrated vector management programs designed to control house fly populations, to reduce the selection pressure on the commonly used insecticides [26,[38][39][40]. The findings of this study can serve as a reference in future monitoring efforts of house fly insecticide susceptibility.…”

The house fly, Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae), is one of the major vectors of several pathogens that affect humans and animals. We evaluated the toxicity of eight insecticides commonly used for house fly control using five field populations collected from dairies in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Among the five tested pyrethroids, non to moderate resistance was found in adults of both sexes compared to a susceptible strain. Resistance ratios ranged from 0.5- to 7-fold for alpha-cypermethrin, 2- to 21-fold for deltamethrin, 4- to 19-fold for bifenthrin, 1- to 9-fold for cyfluthrin, and 1- to 8-fold for cypermethrin. Among the three tested organophosphates, low to moderate resistance was found among adult flies compared to the susceptible strain, and the resistance ratios ranged from 4- to 27-fold for fenitrothion, 2- to 14-fold for chlorpyrifos, and 3- to 12-fold for malathion. The median lethal times for the tested insecticides were 3–33 h for alpha-cypermethrin, 3–24 h for deltamethrin, 5–59 h for bifenthrin, 1–7 h for cypermethrin, 0.3–7 h for cyfluthrin, 6–36 h for fenitrothion, 2–21 h for chlorpyrifos, and 3–34 h for malathion. This study presents baseline data pertaining to registered public health insecticides, and the results will assist future studies monitoring insecticide resistance, and the planning of effective integrated vector management programs.

The synanthropic house fly, Musca domestica is a major vector for the transmission of deadly diseases from one place to another. It plays a primary role in some diseases and community spread against human and animal origin. As the eradication and control measures are challenging through chemical or synthetic insecticides. The repeated exposure to insecticides developed resistance and undesired effects. A study to find the novel insecticides from natural plant-based origin were developed from Lavandula angustifolia, Citrus limon, Mentha piperita, Azadirachta indica and AgNPs against M. domestica at five different concentrations of each extract. The obtained results revealed good mortality from Citrus limon extract through dipping and feeding techniques with LC50 values were 296.145 ppm (contact bioassay) and 380.187 ppm (feeding bioassay) after 24 h post-treatment. The plant-based nanoparticles developed from A. indica revealed good activity at a minimal concentration to reach its lethal effects and that LC50 67.056 ppm (contact bioassay) 110.279 ppm (feeding bioassay. Thus, the developed nano-insecticides are considered effective insecticidal against M. domestica and could save the world from the vectortransmitted disease in the present environment.
