Molasses as a source of carbon dioxide for attracting the malaria mosquitoes Anopheles gambiae and Anopheles funestus

BACKGROUND: Most odour baits for haematophagous arthropods contain carbon dioxide (CO(2)). The CO(2) is sourced artificially from the fermentation of refined sugar (sucrose), dry ice, pressurized gas cylinders or propane.
