Artificial human odor.
Total catches of male (M) and female (F) G. m. morsitans and G. pallidipes in all daily replicates of each treatment in each experiment, the daily mean of the catch of both sexes and species combined, and the 95% confidence limits of the mean. All humans except the doorman were inside the house; windows were closed unless stated otherwise.
