Spatial repellency of transfluthrin-treated hessian strips against laboratory-reared <it>Anopheles arabiensis </it>mosquitoes in a semi-field tunnel cage

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Vapour phase spatial repellents deter mosquitoes from attacking one or more humans in a protected space. Simulation models indicate that high coverage of spatial repellents can enhance the impact of long - lasting insecticide nets (L...
