Cattle‐tsetse contact in relation to the daily activity patterns of Glossina morsitans submorsitans in The Gambia

Abstract. The daily flight activity patterns of one of the main vectors of animal trypanosomiasis in West Africa, Glossina morsitans submorsitans, were assessed using four different methods. Results from all the methods showed that there was some flight activity nearly every hour in all seasons but they differed in the level of contact between grazing cattle herds and G.m.submorsitans. In the late dry season, trap data indicated that there was negligible activity from midday to late afternoon, whereas observations of tsetse contact with cattle herds or hand‐net collections on herd followings showed no fall in attack rates on the cattle by G.m.submorsitans.
