  abstract = {{B}ackground: {P}yrethroid resistance is now widespread in {A}nopheles gambiae, the major vector for malaria in sub-{S}aharan {A}frica. {T}his resistance may compromise malaria vector control strategies that are currently in use in endemic areas. {I}n this context, a new tool for management of resistant mosquitoes based on the combination of a pyrethroid-treated bed net and carbamate-treated plastic sheeting was developed. {M}ethods: {I}n the laboratory, the insecticidal activity and wash resistance of four carbamate-treated materials: a cotton/polyester blend, a polyvinyl chloride tarpaulin, a cotton/polyester blend covered on one side with polyurethane, and a mesh of polypropylene fibres was tested. {T}hese materials were treated with bendiocarb at 100 mg/m(2) and 200 mg/m(2) with and without a binding resin to find the best combination for field studies. {S}econdly, experimental hut trials were performed in southern {B}enin to test the efficacy of the combined use of a pyrethroid-treated bed net and the carbamate-treated material that was the most wash-resistant against wild populations of pyrethroid-resistant {A}n. gambiae and {C}ulex quinquefasciatus. {R}esults: {M}aterial made of polypropylene mesh ({PPW}) provided the best wash resistance (up to 10 washes), regardless of the insecticide dose, the type of washing, or the presence or absence of the binding resin. {T}he experimental hut trial showed that the combination of carbamate-treated {PPW} and a pyrethroid-treated bed net was extremely effective in terms of mortality and inhibition of blood feeding of pyrethroid-resistant {A}n. gambiae. {T}his efficacy was found to be proportional to the total surface of the walls. {T}his combination showed a moderate effect against wild populations of {C}x. quinquefasciatus, which were strongly resistant to pyrethroid. {C}onclusion: {T}hese preliminary results should be confirmed, including evaluation of entomological, parasitological, and clinical parameters. {S}elective pressure on resistance mechanisms within the vector population, effects on other pest insects, and the acceptability of this management strategy in the community also need to be evaluated.},
