Originakalokalo:
Ok. If the mosquitoes have developed resistance to the insecticides​, they cannot penetrate the tiny holes in the net.
Let them check well ooooo...It is possible that those insecticides are fakes.

Does it mean that the mosquitoes can develop resistant to Raid, Mobil, etc?
If yes then they are special breed indeed.
Yes, those things are like body spray to them

Its an obvious thing that every living thing finds a new ways for their existence. We use various precautions to protect ourselves from mosquitoes but they are adapting themselves too to beat that precautions.

I don't believe the result of that research.

What is believe is the quality of the materials/chemicals used in producing the insecticides has been dropped.

Buy Net or get one free at ministry of health.

Buy correct insecticide from agric/pest control shops. Soak the net inside the insecticide solution and spread to dry..

Clean your surroundings and live with dignity like humans mosquitoes will disappear. At the moment they are winning and if you are smarter like you claimed to be, as a "human" you should be able to beat them. It is either you or them,it is the game of survival. Those pesticides will end up killing you,instead of the mosqiitoes.

I said it. I know they are now resistant.

The moment i saw mosquitoes sitting and biting hard on my lighted mosquito coil, i knew all is not well again.

I just pray mosquitoes should not one day be transmitting HIV
Even malaria is becoming resistant to the best drugs available. I even suspect that some mosquitoes are resistant to some insecticides.

The Plasmodium vectors have evolved too? That's some major threat we've got on our hands. Though, I'm not sure why, I think malaria is overrated and not as much of a threat as it used to be; more like a minor ailment to me. I might be wrong, though, just speaking from personal experience.

This is late news. Over a decade ago mosquitoes only faint after you use insecticide.
