Impact of visual features on capture of Aedes aegypti with host decoy traps (HDT)

2020-06-01

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background: </h4> Aedes aegypti is the major mosquito vector of many burdensome human diseases. While behavioral research has focused primarily on understanding the importance of olfactory stimuli in its host-seeking abilities, Ae. aegypti ’s vision has also been shown to contribute significantly to locating a human host. In this semi-field study conducted in Kisian, Kisumu County, Kenya, we explored the role...
