Bio-mathematics, Statistics and Nano-Technologies: Mosquito Control Strategies

Figure 3.5: Design of cage test.

Start date: 25th March 2020

Date of the conclusion of lab test:3rd April 2020

Place of Test: Temperature 24 C° Day light illumination

Treatment of textile: According to processes proposed by the Faculty of Textile Technol-

ogy, University of Zagreb for the impregnation in a unique concentration.

Number of participants: Four men over 50 years old (Figures 3.5 and 3.6)

Measuring the efficacy of textile samples treated with 2 types of micro spraying

treatment before the test

Micro-spraying is done directly on textile samples in an open area and in an enve-

lope in order to avoid the drift effect of repellents. Immediate measurement in the cage is

done as with the procedure for other tests. Comparison of fresh samples and those already

previously treated with the same amount of essential oil for both tests (Figures 3.7).
