Medical entomology is the study of insects and arthropods that affect human health by transmitting diseases. It focuses on vectors such as mosquitoes, flies, ticks, lice, and fleas that spread infections including malaria, dengue, Zika, leishmaniasis, Lyme disease, and plague. Medical entomologists study vector biology, ecology, behavior, and control strategies. Climate change, urbanization, and environmental degradation influence vector distribution and disease transmission patterns. Public health applications include surveillance, vector control programs, insecticide development, and community education. Integrated vector management combines environmental control, chemical methods, biological control, and personal protection. Medical entomology plays a critical role in preventing vector-borne diseases, reducing outbreaks, and strengthening public health preparedness globally.
