Comparisons of Ae. aegypti captured by BG sentinel traps baited with different odor baits relative to the control (BG sentinel trap baited with the BG commercial lure) in Experiment 1 in Busia and Kilifi

Site Treatment IRR (95%CI) P value Site Treatment IRR (95%CI) P value
Busia Blend 3 0.75(0.43-1.55) 0.40 Kilifi Blend 3 0.91(0.35-2.41) 0.858
Busia Blend 2 1.3(0.61-2.75) 0.49 Kilifi Blend 2 1.23(0.47-3.24) 0.665
Busia Blend 1 0.62(0.29-1.35) 0.23 Kilifi Blend 1 0.61(0.23—1.6) 0.307
Busia Volunteer 1 feet odors 1.12(0.53-2.4) 0.76 Kilifi Volunteer 2 feet odors 1.09(0.42-4-2.8) 0.849
Busia Volunteer 1 trunk odors 1.01(0.48-2.15) 0.97 Kilifi Volunteer 2 trunk odors 0.91(0.35—2.41) 0.858

Estimated incidence rate ratio (IRR); confidence interval (CI) and corresponding P-values based on comparison to the control (BG lure baited trap) following generalized linear model (GLM) with negative binomial error structure and log link in R 3.1.0 software. The IRR for the control is 1; values above this indicate better performance while values below indicate under performance relative to the control. Blend 1; propionic acid and 3-methylbutyric acid, Blend 2; nonanal + octanal. Blend 3; Blend 1 + Blend 2.
