Effects of PAM gel hydration (%) and texture on Aedes aegypti oviposition in experimental ovitraps.

	Treatments					Test
Eggs collected per ovitrap at varying levels of PAM gel hydration (%; average ± 95% CI)	40	60	80	100	Hay infusion	One-way ANOVA
	375 ± 118	374 ± 110	509 ± 64	268 ± 65	398 ± 156	F_4,15 = 2.4; P> 0.05
Percentages (± 95% CI) of eggs collected per ovitrap with varying texture and attractants	Coarse, hydrated with hay infusion	Coarse, hydrated with water	Fine, hydrated with hay infusion	Fine, hydrated with water	Two-way ANOVA
	0.37 ± 0.06	0.21 ± 0.06	0.32 ± 0.05	0.10 ± 0.04	Texture F1,12= 7.9; P< 0.05 Attractant F1,12= 46.5; P< 0.01 Texture x Attractant F1, 12 = 1.2; P > 0.05
