Journal ArticleDOI
Breeding Sites of Aedes aegypti: Potential Dengue Vectors in Dire Dawa, East Ethiopia
TL;DR: Aedes aegypti is breeding in a wide range of artificial containers and to control these mosquitoes, the integration of different methods should be taken into consideration.
Journal ArticleDOI
The impact of a small-scale irrigation scheme on malaria transmission in Ziway area, Central Ethiopia
TL;DR: To assess the impact of a small‐scale irrigation scheme in Ziway area, a semi‐arid area in the Central Ethiopian Rift Valley, on malaria transmission, a large number of cases of malaria are reported.
Journal ArticleDOI
Increased malaria transmission around irrigation schemes in Ethiopia and the potential of canal water management for malaria vector control
TL;DR: Proper canal water management could reduce vector abundance and malaria transmission in the irrigated villages, revealing that the irrigation schemes resulted in intensified malaria transmission due to poor Canal water management.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human-biting activities of Anopheles species in south-central Ethiopia
Oljira Kenea,Meshesha Balkew,Habte Tekie,Teshome Gebre-Michael,Wakgari Deressa,Eskindir Loha,Bernt Lindtjørn,Hans J. Overgaard,Hans J. Overgaard,Hans J. Overgaard +9 more
TL;DR: Results show much greater mosquito human-biting activities occurring outdoors than indoors and during early parts of the night, implying higher outdoor malaria transmission potential in the area, suggest high potential intervention impact of IRS and LLINs on indoor malaria transmission.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rice volatiles lure gravid malaria mosquitoes, Anopheles arabiensis.

TL;DR: It is shown that gravid Anopheles arabiensis are attracted and oviposit in response to the odour present in the air surrounding rice, which provides important substrates for the development of novel and cost-effective control measures that target female malaria mosquitoes, irrespective of indoor or outdoor feeding and resting patterns.
