“…The application of Bti as a larval biological control against vector mosquitoes of different genera and species is effective due to the selective toxicity for insects classified as: Diptera (34,35) The toxicity of Bti has been reported against a wide diversity of genera and mosquito species, with multiple formulations available in the international market (36,37). In this case, two commercial products were obtained in Mexico, Bactimos WG and Vectobac WDG, both recommended as biological larvicides for the control of mosquito vectors of human infectious diseases (38,39).…”

“…Although the formulations tested in this work on Ae. aegypti had a slightly different effect among themselves, giving the regression line for Vectobac, with a slope of 1.771, lower but with a significant statistical difference, it was registered that both products showed satisfactory results against this genus and species of mosquito according to with the type of toxin that specifically damages the mosquito's midgut (25,26,34). The similarities that exists between the lethal concentrations (CL) registered in this site, with respect to other parts of the world, support the assumption for this genus and species (42).…”

“…A. albimanus has a different dispersal mechanism and restricted to the tropics and subtropics, they had notable differences in the activity of the formulations on local mosquitoes and in other regions. (34,43) In the southeastern area of Mexico, vector mosquitoes are permanently subjected to adverse conditions, as a consequence of the social development of the communities; indirect conditions such as the extra frontal that is antivectorial (36). On the other hand, in other countries, such as the United States of America, for example; the fight against the mosquito is done because they are annoying and represent a potential danger to the health of man and breeding animals; these are mosquitoes without diseases, therefore, the fight is not anti-vector but anti-mosquito.…”

The bacterial genus and species of Bacillus thuringiensis var israelensis (Bti), is entomotoxic, used in the biological control of mosquito vectors of human diseases, such as malaria and dengue. Following the studies carried out in Mexico and Guatemala with ovillantas, in which the presence of larvae of both species of Anopheles albimanus W and Aedes aegypti L were observed, and with the intention of continuing to develop an ecologically friendly mosquito control, Bti was added to the ovillantas, to improve and already efficient method on the elimination of both types of mosquitoes. The objectives of this work were: to analyze the effectiveness of two commercial formulations of Bti, serovar H-14 (Bactimos) wettable powder, 3,500 ITU, from Biochem prods., and Vectobac, 2,000 ITU wettable powder, (Abbot Lab.) on second and third instars larvae of A. albimanus and Ae. aegypti (Diptera Culicidae). The two formulations were effective against A. albimanus W(higher concentrations), while Ae. aegypti L was very susceptible to Bti, therefore it is proposed for the best control of these genus and vector species of malaria and dengue at adequate concentrations.
