Table 8 Field trial one: Multiple Tukey’s all-pair comparisons of (i) the total number Culicoides collected (all species) and (ii) the number of females of potential AHSV vector species of Culicoides (Culicoides obsoletus (Meigen), 1818; Culicoides scoticus Downes and Kettle, 1952; Culicoides dewulfi (Goetghebuer), 1936; and Culicoides chiopterus (Meigen), 1830) collected within Ultraviolet (UV) Center for Disease Control (CDC) light-suction traps within frames which are either (i) covered with insecticide-treated mesh, (ii) covered with untreated mesh, or (iii) left uncovered

From: Can insecticide-treated netting provide protection for Equids from Culicoides biting midges in the United Kingdom?
