Effectiveness of a transfluthrin emanator and insecticide-treated barrier screen in reducing Anopheles biting in a temporary shelter in Sumatra, Indonesia
Both interventions appeared to reduce Anopheles and non-Anopheles mosquito host-seeking behaviour, highlighting the potential of these forms of outdoor mosquito control. Considerable variation was observed between collection locations, highlighting a difficulty in study design and entomological forecasting. Due to the rotational design where the device age correlated with location, it was difficult to disentangle the relative contributions of these factors. Passive SEs and insecticide-impregnated barrier screens represent interventions that may reduce exposure and hence transmission outdoors.
