Abstract
Success in controlling African trypanosomiasis (afflicting both men and animals) through destruction of the tsetse vector depends on an assessment of human and ecological factors in infested regions. Complete eradication of tsetse is possible in limited areas. Advantages of periodic control campaigns are compared to their cost.This publication has 6 references indexed in Scilit:
