Insecticide Treated Nets The Anopheles is one of the best known types of mosquito because of its role in the transmission of malaria. Since the Anopheles mosquito bites between dusk and dawn, sleeping under mosquito nets treated with insecticides provides critical protection against the spread of malaria.
Understanding the biology and behavior of Anopheles mosquitoes can help understand how malaria is transmitted and can aid in designing appropriate control strategies. Factors that affect a mosquito's ability to transmit malaria include its innate susceptibility to Plasmodium, its host choice, and its longevity.he adult stage is when the female Anopheles mosquito acts as malaria vector. The adult females can live up to a month (or more in captivity) but most probably do not live more than 1-2 weeks in nature. Top: Anopheles Egg; note the lateral floats.
