Quantification of Anopheles daily sugar feeding rates in Siaya county, western Kenya using Attractive Sugar Baits
The results from this study showed that predominant malaria vectors; Anopheles funestus led to a daily feeding rate that was presumed to be sufficient to cause a reduction in malaria incidence by ATSBs. There was no significant difference detected between deploying two or three bait stations per structure. The study provided important information utilized in the subsequent deployment of ATSBs in epidemiological trials.
