Evaluation of the stability of physiological and behavioral resistance to imidacloprid in the house fly (Musca domestica L.) (Diptera: Muscidae).

These results have significant implications for the management of house flies exhibiting behavioral resistance in field settings. It appears that standard resistance management tactics deployed to reduce the prevalence physiological resistance, such as rotating or temporarily discontinuing the use of specific insecticides, may not similarly lead to reduced behavioral resistance to imidacloprid.
