Table 1. Mixed linear regression model of the impact of target deployment on tsetse catches in the Boffa focus.

Fixed effects Nb of coefficient Means of catches/day Least squares (± standard error) F ratio Prob. >F
Sampling round 5 - 3.7459 0.0027
Target deployment 1 yes 2.99 (± 1.29) 26.7620 < 0.0001
no 18.17 (± 2.63)

Mixed linear regression was used to model the response variable that was the mean number of catches/day/trap. The trapping site was included as a random effect and the period of sampling and deployment of impregnated targets as fixed effects.
