Tanzania
An experimental hut trial have been conducted in Tanzania to evaluate VECTRON™ T500 residual efficacy applied on both concrete and mud huts surfaces against pyrethroid susceptible Anopheles gambiae s.s. and resistant An. gambiae s.s.Muleba-Kis. It provided residual efficacy (>80%) to seven months on concrete substrates and six months on mud. This trial will continue until 12 months after spraying. VECTRON™ T500 also showed good residual efficacy against the local wild free-flying An. arabiensis.

Long residual activity against both susceptible and resistant strains in experimental huts
The red line (80% mortality) is the WHO guidelines (2006) criterion for the number of months of residual efficacy
