The Loos islands constitute a small archipelago some 5 km from mainland Guinea, where\n                      <jats:italic>G. p. gambiensis<\/jats:italic>\n                      is well known as a nuisance and potential disease vector by inhabitants of the three main islands, Fotoba, Room, and Kassa. The National Control Program against HAT of Guinea has decided to eradicate tsetse in Loos islands in order to sustainably protect humans and economic activities. After baseline data collection, tsetse control began on the islands in 2006. On each of the three islands a specific combination of control methods was implemented according to the entomological situation found.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Starting densities before control operations were 10, 3 and 1 tsetse\/trap\/day in Kassa, Room and Fotoba respectively, but by July 2010, tsetse were no longer caught in any of the sentinel traps used for monitoring.

Next step will consist in assessing a 0.05 probability of tsetse absence to ascertain a provisional eradication status. Throughout these operations, a key factor has been the involvement of local teams and local communities without whom such results would be impossible to obtain. Work will continue thanks to the partners involved until total eradication of the tsetse on Loos islands can be declared.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/1756-3305-4-18","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,2,10]],"date-time":"2011-02-10T18:17:09Z","timestamp":1297361829000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":38,"title":["Progress towards the eradication of Tsetse from the Loos islands, Guinea"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"4","author":[{"given":"Moise S","family":"Kagbadouno","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mamadou","family":"Camara","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"J\u00e9r\u00e9my","family":"Bouyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fabrice","family":"Courtin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Mory F","family":"Onikoyamou","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Chris J","family":"Schofield","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Philippe","family":"Solano","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,2,10]]},"reference":[{"key":"266_CR1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"29","DOI":"10.1051\/parasite\/2009161029","volume":"16","author":"M Kagbadouno","year":"2009","unstructured":"Kagbadouno M, Camara M, Bouyer J, Hervouet JP, Courtin F, Jamonneau V, Jamonneau P: Tsetse elimination: its interest and feasibility in the historical sleeping sickness focus of loos islands, Guinea.
