Analysing chemical attraction of gravid Anopheles gambiae sensu stricto with modified BG-Sentinel traps

Abstract Background Cues that guide gravid Anopheles gambiae sensu lato to oviposition sites can be manipulated to create new strategies for monitoring and controlling malaria vectors. However, progress towards identifying such cues is slow in part due to the lack of appropriate tools for investigat...
