From: Attraction of Ethiopian phlebotomine sand flies (Diptera: Psychodidae) to light and sugar-yeast mixtures (CO2)

Figure 2

Sergentomyia spp. and Phlebotomus spp. caught by suction traps baited with different attractants. Bars represent mean (±SE) number of sand flies (males black bars and females gray bars) per trap per night (11–16 trap nights per bar). There was no significant difference between the green, yellow and red chemical light-sticks (Kruskal-Wallis test, p > 0.05). Incandescent light (6 V, 150 mA) and Sugar-Yeast-Mixture (SYM), captured significantly more sand flies than the light-sticks.
