Table 6 Maximum, minimum and average population of the last 14 simulated days in heterogeneous scenario, corresponding to Fig. 6, for each insecticide application strategy. Between parentheses we show these values relative to the equilibrium solution \(M^* = 14752\)
Application frequency | Min. value | Max. value | Avg. value |
|---|---|---|---|
Once a day | 13323 (\(90.3\%\)) | 13571 (\(92.0\%\)) | 13472 (\(91.3\%\)) |
Twice a week | 11967 (\(81.1\%\)) | 13300 (\(90.6\%\)) | 12818 (\(86.9\%\)) |
Once a week | 11189 (\(75.9\%\)) | 13560 (\(91.9\%\)) | 12736 (\(86.3\%\)) |
Once in two weeks | 10247 (\(69.5\%\)) | 14187 (\(96.2\%\)) | 13044 (\(88.4\%\)) |
