ABSTRACT
We compared in a 5-year intervention study the cost-effectiveness of community-based environmental management intertwined with routine vertical Aedes control and of routine vertical control only. At baseline (year 2000), Aedes infestation levels and economic costs for vector control were comparable in intervention and control areas (house index, 2,23 percent versus 2,21percent and US$21 versus US$24/yr/inhabitant, respectively)...
