My brother worked in a mosquito lab for a while and said that mosquitos lose these resistances pretty quickly (as a population) if they aren't regularly being dosed.

The lab helped inform the city's strategy for fighting mosquitos, which was to rotate pesticides. I believe they also bred and released neutered mosquitos.
