Summary: | The present research was conducted to study the monthly changes in fly index
and the insecticide resistance profiles in poultry farms. The information gathered can be
used to formulate an effective control strategy for house fly.
Changes in the index of the house fly, Musca domestica, was studied for a period
of one year in two poultry farms in Penang, Malaysia: one in Balik Pulau, located on
Penang Island, and the other in Juru, located on mainland Penang. The sampling of
house flies was carried out from March 2007 to April 2008 by using the Scudder grill. |
