Fredros O Okumu, Bart GJ Knols, Ulrike Fillinger Malaria Journal 2007, 6:63 (22 May 2007) Neem oil has good larvicidal properties for mosquitoes and suppresses successful adult emergence at very low concentrations. Considering the wide distribution and availability of this tree and its products along the East African coast, this may prove a readily available and cheap alternative to conventional larvicides.
