Abstract: Discussion: The study shows that Ae. albopictus and Ae.aegypti larvae live in a wide variety of breeding sites (Ngo et al., 2020), those species are largely distributed across the country (Tedjou et al., 2019).Ae. albopictus and Aedes aegypti were sensitive to organophosphates (malathion).These results are similar to previous studies (Kamgang et al., 2017).The tolerance and resistance observed could be due to the use of insecticides such as sprays and reminders, which are becoming more and more common (Nchoutpouen et al., 2019). Conclusion:The implementation of surveillance and control programmes for arbovirus vectors is urgent required in view of the increase in cases of arboviroses.To control arboviruses effectively, a targeted approach is needed to limit the spread of these vectors in our environment.This work is a contribution to vector control using ecological and susceptibility parameters with the aim of preventing a possible arbovirus epidemic in Cameroon.
