Table 4. Test catches at short pulse intervals and low energy per pulse, compared to control catches at longer intervals and higher energy.
Grid | Insect | Total catch | Percent catch | ||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Test | Control | Mean | 95% CL | ||
Tsetse | E-Net | 1768 | 1451 | 122* | 114–131 |
E-Coth | 281 | 251 | 112 | 94–133 | |

The test conditions were pulse intervals of 1ms and energy of 35mJ per pulse, as against control conditions of 15ms and 175mJ. The mean percent catch is the total catch at the test power, as a percent of the total at the control. An asterisk next to the mean percent catch indicates that the test and control catches differed at P<0.05.
