Abstract
Mosquito-borne illnesses are a major concern for worldwide public health and insecticides persist as the principal method for reducing potential vectors and disease control. As a result of widespread insecticide use emergence of resistance in mosquitoes is a global problem. In order to overcome this issue vector control programmers should routinely check localized mosquito vectors for insecticide resistance, which is essential for the efficient management of vector-borne diseases and schedule preventive actions in accordance. The major techniques for determining mosquito vectors insecticide resistance (such as dose-mortality bioassay, WHO tube testing, and CDC bottle bioassay) are highlighted in this review along with some insights into challenges that researchers are encountering when evaluating resistance.
