Abstract

In this paper,we reported the differences in susceptibility to insecticides between adults and larvae of housefly, Musca domestica (L.),and the mechanisms for the differences.The larvae of housefly were much more tolerant to insecticides than the adults,and the tolerance ratio to cyhalothrin was as high as 205.5 for susceptible strain.Mechanism studies showed that higher GST activity was associated with higher insecticide tolerance in the larvae.The co\|toxicity coefficient of the mixture of cyhalothrin and methylene dithiocyanate(4∶1) on pyrethroid\|resistant houseflies was 188.
