Fig. 2From: A preliminary study on designing a cluster randomized control trial of two new mosquito nets to prevent malaria parasite infectionTemporal changes in the numbers of anopheline mosquitoes and monthly rainfall. Anopheles funestus s. l. and An. gambiae s. l. were collected biweekly from 10 sentinel houses within each cluster using the pyrethrum spray catch method during the period from April 2009 to April 2010. The rainfall data were obtained from an automated weather station (AWS) in the ICIPE Thomas Odhiambo Campus, Mbita, Homabay County, Kenya. The closest distance from the study area to the AWS was approximately 11 kmBack to article page
