摘要: The kairomone octenol is known as attractive to hematophagous Diptera such mosquitoes, tsetse flies, and midges. There little evidence that traps baited with are also effective in attracting phlebotomine sand flies. present report evaluated modified Centers for Disease Control Prevention (CDC) two experiments: 1) CDC trap without light 2) light. were at concentrations of 0.5, 27, 43 mg/h Rincao locality, Sao Paulo, Brazil.
