Do Different LED Colours Influence Sand Fly Collection by Light Trap in the Mediterranean?
Light traps represent the most used attractive system to collect and monitor phlebotomine sand flies. Recent studies have suggested that light traps can be easily upgraded by the use of light‐emitting diode (LED) with positive effects on trap design, weight, and battery life.
