An improved C model (ITT-C) was developed and evaluated by comparing with ITT-B in semi-field and full-field conditions in southern Tanzania. The sensitivity of the ITT-C was approximately two times that of the ITT-B: relative rate (95% confidence interval) = 1.92 (1.52\u20132.42), 1.90 (1.48\u20132.43), and 2.30 (1.54\u20133.30) for field populations of <jats:italic>An. arabiensis<\/jats:italic>, <jats:italic>Culex<\/jats:italic> spp., and <jats:italic>Mansonia<\/jats:italic> spp., respectively. The ITT-C caught 73% less blood-fed <jats:italic>An. arabiensis<\/jats:italic> than the ITT-B in open field experiments and none in semi-field experiments, which confirmed that the C design is a safe trapping method. Validation of ITT-C by comparison with human landing catches and parasitologic measures of human infection status may be necessary to confirm that this design produces consistent and epidemiologically meaningful results.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4269\/ajtmh.2010.09-0682","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2010,9,1]],"date-time":"2010-09-01T17:27:59Z","timestamp":1283362079000},"page":"596-600","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":28,"title":["An Exposure-Free Tool for Monitoring Adult Malaria Mosquito Populations"],"prefix":"10.4269","volume":"83","author":[{"given":"Nicodem J.","family":"Govella","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jason D.","family":"Moore","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Gerry F.","family":"Killeen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"2795","reference":[{"year":"2003","series-title":"Malaria Entomology and Vector Control.
