Mosquitoes are blood-feeding insects and serve as the most
important vectors for spreading human diseases, such as malaria,
yellow fever, dengue fever, and filariasis Control of such diseases
is becoming increasingly difficult because of increasing resistance
of mosquitoes to pesticides. An alternative approach for mosquito
control is the use of natural products of plant origin. Humans have
used plant parts, products and metabolites in vector control since
early historical times. Plants are the chemical factories of
nature, producing many chemicals, some of which have medicinal and
insecticidal properties. The aim of this book is to give a
self-contained detail of mosquito control from Caesalpinia
pulcherrima. It is designed as a book for those research scholars
who use mosquito control and for researchers working on medicinal
plants. This book contains 7 chapters. Chapter 1 provides a general
introduction. In chapter 2, reviews of literature are given. The
chapter 3 provides the aim of the present study. The chapter 4
provides the materials and methods. The observations are presented
in chapter 5. The discussion is in chapter 6. Summary is in chapter
7.Finally provide references.
