Significant two variable comparisons are shown. Counts refer to the number of individuals from a total of 115 respondents who are strongly likely to buy larvicides, and % corresponds to the percentage of these 115 respondents. These data were analyzed using Chi Square analysis (Chi Square and P values are indicated, degrees of freedom = 16).
