Introduction
Dengue is the most important disease transmitted by arthropods in the world; more than 2.5 billion people are at risk of
contracting the virus by sharing an area of spatial distribution
with the vector Aedes (Stegomyia) aegypti (L., 1762)
(Guzman et al. 2010). Although this mosquito can also transmit other arboviral infections such as encephalitis, yellow
fever, and hemorrhagic fevers, among others, none of these
ailments compares to dengue when it comes to morbidity and
mortality (Bhatt et al. 2013). A phenomenon of the problem
faced with this vector is that the number of cases increases
every year as a result of the simultaneous circulation of the
four serotypes DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4
