Drainage basin Capture site Monthly biting rate (MBR) pre-control Monthly biting rate (MBR) after 12 yrs of treatment Infective rate (%) pre-control Infective rate (%) after 12 yrs of treatment Infection rate (%) pre-control Infection rate (%) after 12 yrs of treatment MTP pre-control MTP after 12 yrs of treatment Authors of pre-control data
Mungo/Meme (South of South-West) Bolo 11122 12636 3.1 2.7 12.8 8.3 570 282 Enyong et al., 2006 [37]

NB: Only communities with pre-control data were presented in this table.

MBR (Flies/man/month) = Monthly biting rate.

MTP (L3/man/month) = Monthly transmission potential.
