²with q = 0.03 m the probability that a mosquito seeks a host at a distance of 10 m is 25% of that at 0 m (same household) and 0.3% at 100 m

³p_out is a linear function based on the number of infections within the modelling area, $p_{out}=k{\displaystyle \sum I}$ where ${\displaystyle \sum I}$ is the sum of all infections within the modelling area and k is a scaling factor to achieve 0.1/day probability at 100% infection rate (k = 1.07 x 10⁻⁶).
