Habitat comments: "The only occupation of the village is farming"; the surrounding mountains "are covered in primary tropical rain forest, although the slopes closest to the village have been cleared and planted with maize, tea, rubber trees and small areas of other food crops. A large river flows beside the north side of the village and rice fields are located within 300 m northeast of the village... Houses 1 and 5 were situated at the forest fringe, while houses 2, 3 and 4 were situated near the river, closest to the rice fields. House 5 was also located 10 m away from a small rice paddy, measuring 50 m2"

Life forms: mosquitoes

Sampling methods: no design,baited,light traps,UV light traps,hand capture

Sample size: 2371 individuals

Sampling comments: "The trial was run over 16 consecutive nights, using two miniature CDC traps fitted with normal incandescent bulbs... and two updraught UV traps... The traps were used beside bed nets...
A single UV trap and one CDC trap was used in the forest for 12 hours, for one night baited with CO2. A UV trap and CDC trap were placed in the forest, both without CO2, also for one night... Two Encephalitis Vector Surveillance (EVS) traps (Bioquip 2801A), were used for eight nights baited with CO 2, and baited with 10 ml of lactic acid for five nights... One trap was hung from a tree 1.5 m above the ground within the forest fringe, 20 m from the edge of the village... The other EVS trap was located in the center of the village... Collections were made in 10 pig sheds located beneath the study houses on three occasions... using a torch and a mouth aspirator for 15 minutes per shed... Three collections were also made in the same way from the lower surface of the houses as cattle shelter beneath the houses"
