Dengue is the most rapidly spreading vector borne disease. In Thailand, the number of dengue cases increased from 46,829 in 2006 to 76,059 by September 2008 (WHO, 2008). Insecticides play a vital role in controlling this disease but the success of control programmes is continually threatened by the emergence and spread of insecticide resistance in the vector population.
