Time to loss of physical integrity of attractive targeted sugar bait (ATSB) stations in Western Province, Zambia: a survival analysis
Study results suggest that the majority of ATSB stations deployed in this setting will remain intact for a 7-month seasonal deployment period if stations are installed in locations protected from weather elements, such as underneath the overhang of thatched roof. Further research is needed to understand factors that influence the physical integrity and efficacy of ATSB stations in addition to those observed in this study.
