Pesticide use for Malaria Control in Africa (23)
------------------------------------------------

Hi Bill,

Thank you very much for your response. I am also keen in finding
a solution to malaria. Another thing I like to share with you is
the newly inverted technique to kill malaria mosquitoes using
fungus (entonopathogenic fungus). This new biological technique
could actually hit the target. This tool is cheaper and there
are no foreseen mosquitoes resistant against it. Fungus which
attracted great attention and interests among the communities
where the study was done (Ifakara - Southern Tanzania) have also
attracted great attention to international scientists.

Cheers,
