The Effect of High Fences on the Dispersal of Some West African Mosquitoes(Diptera: CuUcidae) [PDF]
, 1978 Many "West African mosquitoes fly at low levels when crossing open country. Experiments were therefore conducted in the Gambia on the effect of high fences on their dispersal. In the first experiment, a circular mosquito-proof fence 2-9 m high and with a
