In Pakistan, application of pyrethroids insecticides and temephos is on peak. The present
research is designed to detect current level of the temephos and pyrethroids resistance and identifying the
presence of knockdown resistance. LC50 and RR50 values from Pothohar town and Rawal town were
(0.245 ppm, 7.17) and (0.032 ppm, 8.2). LC95 and RR95 values from pothohar town and Rawal town were
(0.413, 8.4) and (0.245, 5).LC50 values of deltamethrin from Pothohar and Rawal Town were 0.016 and
0.015 % with resistance ratio 6.4 and 6, respectively. LC50 value of cypermethrin from Pothowar and
Rawal Town were 0.017 and 0.019 % with resistance ratio 5.6 and 6, respectively.
