Ifakara Tent Trap-C design. The human occupant is protected from mosquito bites by two rectangular netting panels with the dotted circular point showing the position of the aspirator inlet though a sealable cotton sleeve. Mosquitoes enter through a funnel shaped entrances, each supported by a wire bar with soft caps just outside of the plastic rings, which form the inner small apertures of the funnel end. The three funnel apertures in each trap chamber are drawn tightly together with a three-way elastic band tie, which terminates in these wire bars that hold the ends of the funnels. All dimensions are in millimeters.
