A 3 yr study was carried out on the feasibility of community participation in a malaria vector . Environmental control of vectors is possible without the advent of any technology for the control of vectors in rural areas. While appropriate technology for vector control can be developed in villages without using chemical insecticides, for enlisting community participation on a sustained basis, vector control program should be integrated with the overall socioeconomic development and health care delivery in the area concerned.
