Abstract : The work was carried out for one year from March 2010 until February 2011. During the survey, 6116 adult mosquitoes were collected representing 7 different mosquito species. These species were belonged to the genera of Aedes, Culex and Anopheles. Moreover, A survey of larval stages of mosquitoes from 20 different breeding sites in Makkah was conducted. The records showed that Cx. pipiens mosquito larvae were the dominant species. On the other hand, the present study was planned to evaluate the effectiveness of some non-conventional insecticides as slow-release formulations (SRF) on the larval stages and pupae until adult emergence of Aedes aegypti. These (SRF) were Altosid XR-briquets, Du-Dim tables and Bactimos briquets. The results showed that treatments with SRF of the tested non-conventional insecticides gave continuous effective control against Aedes aegypti for several weeks. The records indicated that the treatment with Altosid XR-briquets against mosquito larvae of Ae.aegypti gave effective control with 90-100% inhibition of adult emergence for 96days post-treatment, while Du-Dim tablets began to lose their effectiveness toward the present mosquitoes after 73 days. On the other hand, effective control with 90-100% inhibition of adult emergence was achieved for 35 days post-treatment by using Bactimos briquets. Generally, taking the durations of effective control into consideration, the results indicated that Altosid XR-briquets proved to be more effective against Ae.aegypti than Du-Dim tables and Bactimos briquets by about 1.3 and 2.7 times, respectively. Variations in the durations of effective control among the tested SRF may reflect differences in their active ingredients and the mode of action.
