METHODS: We show how to estimate model parameter values from the experimental data found in the literature using concepts from dynamical systems, genetic algorithm optimization and partial differential equations. Heterogeneous scenario It considers that diffusion coefficient value inside house blocks is equal to half of that obtained in "Parameter estimation" section, since streets are more favorable place for mosquitoes movement. • Considering the limitations in data (all parameters are fitted or obtained from the literature) and modeling, our results suggest that the weekly insecticide application results in a local minimum of the average mosquitoes' population. ./cache/cord-034950-7gwb0o3l.txt ./txt/cord-034950-7gwb0o3l.txt
