Because these mosquitoes are becoming resistant to most chemical insecticides used around the world, studies with new larvicides should be prioritized. Based on the known biological profile of imidazolium salts (IS), the objective of this study was to evaluate the potential of six IS as larvicides against <jats:italic>Ae<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>aegypti<\/jats:italic>, as tested against <jats:italic>Ae. aegypti<\/jats:italic> larvae.
