Five organophosphates (OPs) (chlorpyrifos, chlorpyrifos methyl, fenthion, malathion, and temephos), 3 pyrethroids (bifenthrin, cypermethrin, and permethrin), 1 phenyl pyrazole (fipronil), 2 microbial pesticides (Bacillus thuringiensis serovar. israelensis [B.t.i.] and Bacillus sphaericus), and 3 insect growth regulators (IGRs) (diflubenzuron, methoprene, and pyriproxyfen) were evaluated against field-collected Culex quinquefasciatus larvae from urban Dhaka, Bangladesh. The LC90 values of all OPs, except for temephos (LC90 = 0.0096 ppm), were high, ranging from 0.13 ppm (fenthion) to 2.882 ppm (chlorpyrifos methyl). Pyrethroid LC90 values were 0.021 ppm (bifenthrin), 0.00061 (cypermethrin), and 0.017 ppm (permethrin). Fipronil exhibited a superior activity with LC90 value of 0.000896 ppm. Technical powders of B.t.i. and B. sphaericus (VectoBac TP and VectoLex TP) were considered highly effective against the Cx. quinquefasciatus larvae. The IGRs also were effective with pyriproxyfen (LC90 = 0.0011 ppm), being 3 times and 47 times more active than diflubenzuron (LC90 = 0.0034 ppm) and methoprene (LC90 = 0.052 ppm), respectively. In general, toxicity ranking of chemicals and microbials tested was phenyl pyrazole > IGRs > pyrethroids > microbials > OPs.
