Maximising mosquito collections from barrier screens: the impacts of physical design and operation parameters
Abstract Background Traditional methods for collecting outdoor resting mosquitoes are generally inefficient with relatively low numbers caught per unit effort. The barrier screen, designed to intercept mosquitoes as they fly between areas where blood meals are obtained and oviposition sites where eg...
