Advantages and limitations of commercially available electrocuting grids for studying mosquito behaviour
BACKGROUND: Mosquito feeding behaviour plays a major role in determining malaria transmission intensity and the impact of specific prevention measures. Human Landing Catch (HLC) is currently the only method that can directly and consistently measure the biting rates of anthropophagic mosquitoes, bot...
