a All models include date and household as random effects and season, village and treatment as fixed effects. For An. quadriannulatus, proportion of human exposure occurring indoors (πi) was significantly affected by village (p = 0.0224) and the proportion caught indoors (Pi) was affected by village and season, p = 0.0177 and 0.0238, respectively. Otherwise, none of the estimates for the proportion of human exposure indoors (πi), proportion caught indoors (Pi) and proportion caught when most people are indoors (Pfl) were not significantly affected by treatment, season or village (P > 0.05) for An. funestus, An. quadriannulatus or other anophelines.
