The Zumba™ Mosquito Trap and Bg-Sentinel™ Trap: Novel Surveillance Tools for Host-Seeking Mosquitoes

Journal of the American Mosquito Control Association, 2009
In a periurban habitat located in Northern Virginia, this study used 13 replicates of a 4 x 4 Latin square to evaluate the efficacy of 2 novel mosquito traps, the Zumba mosquito trap and the BG-Sentinel trap, against 2 existing host-seeking mosquito traps [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) miniature light and CDC Fay-Prince].
