Variations in household microclimate affect outdoor-biting behaviour of malaria vectors

2017-10-24

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> : Mosquito behaviours including the degree to which they bite inside houses or outside is a crucial determinant of human exposure to malaria. Whilst seasonality in mosquito vector abundance is well documented, much less is known about the impact of climate on mosquito behaviour. We investigated how variations in household microclimate affect outdoor-biting by malaria vectors, Anopheles arabi...
