Traps such as Nguruman (NGU), biconical and sticky traps are in use for tsetse flies sampling and monitoring. However, there is no evidence regarding their comparative efficiency in catching flies using olfactory cues. Therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the efficiency of different types of traps in catching tsetse flies at Nech Sar and Maze National Parks, Southwestern Ethiopia. The study was done for six consecutive months from February to July 2019. Briefly, a 3\u00d74 Latin square design was performed, and tsetse flies were collected for three days each month in four different vegetation types, including wood grassland, bush land, forest, and riverine forest. To avoid trapping position bias, rotation of traps has been done every day. Almost all (99.5%) of the flies were <jats:italic>Glossina pallidipes<\/jats:italic> and the remaining were <jats:italic>G<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>fuscipes<\/jats:italic>. The latter were present only at Maze national park. NGU traps were the most efficient type with 12.1 flies\/trap\/day at Nech Sar National Park and it was 2.2 flies\/trap\/day at Maze National Park followed by biconical and sticky traps. The number of tsetse flies collected by biconical trap was three-fold lower than NGU trap, and it was four-fold lower in sticky trap than NGU trap in both Nech Sar and Maze National Parks. A substantial number (41%) of <jats:italic>G<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>pallidipes<\/jats:italic> were collected from woody grassland (WGL). In conclusion, <jats:italic>G<\/jats:italic>. <jats:italic>pallidipes<\/jats:italic> monitoring and evaluation activities could consider NGU trap model as it performed better in most vegetation types in the region.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pntd.0010999","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,22]],"date-time":"2022-12-22T18:54:30Z","timestamp":1671735270000},"page":"e0010999","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1371\/journal.pntd.corrections_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Evaluating the efficacy of various traps in catching tsetse flies at Nech Sar and Maze National Parks, Southwestern Ethiopia: An Implication for Trypanosoma Vector Control"],"prefix":"10.1371","volume":"16","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4624-1697","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Netsanet","family":"Asfaw","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Berhanu","family":"Hiruy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Netsanet","family":"Worku","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Fekadu","family":"Massebo","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"340","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2022,12,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref001","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"2397","DOI":"10.1016\/S0140-6736(17)31510-6","article-title":"Human African trypanosomiasis","volume":"390","author":"P B\u00fcscher","year":"2017","journal-title":"Lancet"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref002","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","DOI":"10.1093\/jme\/tjac018","article-title":"African Animal Trypanosomiasis: A systematic review on prevalence, risk factors and drug resistance in Sub-Saharan Africa","volume":"59","author":"I Okello","year":"2022","journal-title":"J Med Entomol"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref003","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"101","DOI":"10.1146\/annurev.ento.50.071803.130443","article-title":"Tsetse Genetics: contributions to biology, systematics, and control of tsetse flies","volume":"50","author":"RH Gooding","year":"2005","journal-title":"Annu Rev Entomol"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref004","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0005454","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pntd.0005454","article-title":"Human African trypanosomiasis control: Achievements and challenges.","volume":"11","author":"S Aksoy","year":"2017","journal-title":"PLoS Negl Trop Dis."},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref005","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"473","DOI":"10.1016\/S1471-4922(02)02371-1","article-title":"Aiming to eliminate tsetse from Africa","volume":"18","author":"JP Kabayo","year":"2002","journal-title":"TRENDS Parasitol"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref006","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"S15","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jip.2012.07.026","article-title":"Tsetse flies: Their biology and control using area-wide integrated pest management approaches","volume":"112","author":"MJB Vreysena","year":"2013","journal-title":"J Invertebr Pathol"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref007","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"265","DOI":"10.1017\/S000748530005046X","article-title":"Control of tsetse fly (Diptera: Glossinidae) populations using traps at Nguruman, south-west Kenya.","volume":"80","author":"RD Dransfield","year":"1990","journal-title":"Bull Entomol Res"},{"key":"pntd.0010999.ref008","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"e0009620","DOI":"10.1371\/journal.pntd.0009620","article-title":"A novel vehicle-mounted sticky trap;
