Control of tsetse flies using insecticide-treated targets is often hampered by vegetation re-
growth and encroachment which obscures a target and renders it less effective. Potentially …

geranylacetone) identified in waterbuck (Kobus defassa) body odour referred to as …

Tsetse flies transmit trypanosomes that cause nagana in cattle, and sleeping sickness in
humans. Therefore, optimising visual baits to control tsetse is an important priority. Tsetse …

African animal trypanosomiasis (AAT) is a major constraint to livestock productivity,
particularly in cattle and in camels. This chapter covers some general aspects of the …
