The overall purpose of this project is to develop a novel mosquito trap that utilizes electrostatic charge and a sticky surface to collect mosquitoes of medical importance, regardless of species, sex, feeding status, host preference or age.

Collecting the population at random will provide the necessary information regarding mosquito population structure and infection status, which are needed to support proof of concept and transition to operational control of new approaches to suppress these insect populations.

Total funding:
