Tsetse Control<br />

Cameroon Dieldr<strong>in</strong> 750-900 g/ha H Estimated 10% reduction of overground <strong>in</strong>vertebrates Muller<br />

(fallout on sheets on the ground). Reduction of et. al. 1981<br />

solidwell<strong>in</strong>g arthropods after sprays (pitfalls), but almost<br />

complete restoration dur<strong>in</strong>g subsequtn dry season.<br />

Possibly large part of lepidoptera wiped out and not<br />

returned a year later. (NB: no control area <strong>in</strong>vestigated).<br />

Nigerai Dieldr<strong>in</strong> 900 g/ha H Spiders, Hymenoptera and Hemiptera found dead <strong>in</strong> Koeman<br />

large numbers after spray<strong>in</strong>g. et. al. 1978<br />

Dieldr<strong>in</strong> 800 g/ha H Insectgs and spiders found dead after spray<strong>in</strong>g. Marked<br />

mortality amount ants (Hymenoptera).<br />

Endomulfan 800 g/ha H Insects and spiders founddead after spray<strong>in</strong>g. Marked<br />

mortality among ants, other Hymenopters, Coleoptera,<br />

Diptera. Residual effect lasts approximately 5 days<br />

Ivory Endosulfan 267 g/ha (5x) H Knockdown of many <strong>in</strong>sects after spray<strong>in</strong>g (funnel traps); Everts<br />

Coast especially ants, other Hymenoptera, Diptera. Fly<strong>in</strong>g et. al. 1983<br />

<strong>in</strong>sects reduced (Malaise traps). Recovery after each<br />

application. No apparent long term effect on entomofauna.<br />

10/267 (5x) H No effect observed on <strong>in</strong>door rest<strong>in</strong>g anophellnemalaria<br />

mosquitos. Reduction of culic<strong>in</strong>e mosquitos which was<br />

pemanent dur<strong>in</strong>g spray period. No clear effect on dusk<br />

bitt<strong>in</strong>g captures of both groups, nor on species<br />

composition and number <strong>in</strong> ovitraps.<br />

(NB: no control area <strong>in</strong>vestigated).<br />

Orthoptera, Muscidae, Proctotrupoidae. Increase <strong>in</strong><br />
