Prospects for Developing Odour Baits To Control Glossina fuscipes spp., the Major Vector of Human African Trypanosomiasis

MO Omolo, A Hassanali, S Mpiana… - Plos Neglected …, 2009 - journals.plos.org
We are attempting to develop cost-effective control methods for the important vector of
sleeping sickness, Glossina fuscipes spp. Responses of the tsetse flies Glossina fuscipes
fuscipes (in Kenya) and G. f. quanzensis (in Democratic Republic of Congo) to natural host
odours are reported. Arrangements of electric nets were used to assess the effect of cattle-,
human-and pig-odour on (1) the numbers of tsetse attracted to the odour source and (2) the
proportion of flies that landed on a black target (1× 1 m). In addition responses to monitor …
