- Sum of each mosquito species in each trap is also shown with the percentage in parenthesis.
- MC, counterflow geometry trap baited with milk cream; LC, counterflow geometry trap baited with Limburger cheese; NB, counterflow geometry trap with no bait. N represents the number of days. The percentages are calculated for each mosquito species. For example the counterflow geometry trap baited with milk cream collected 36% of all the An. gambiae s.l, collected by the three traps while, the counterflow geometry trap baited with Limburger cheese collected 64% of all the same.
- Values following each other in the same column with different letter superscripts are significantly different at (P = 0.05).
