Tsetse populations and trypanosome prevalence in cattle were monitored from 1986 to 1993 in the Ghibe valley, south-west Ethiopia. From January 1991 to December 1993 between 2000 and 4000 cattle were treated at monthly intervals with a synthetic pyrethroid insecticide, cypermethrin (RS-alpha-cyan...

Since April 1990 a tsetse control experiment with the synthetic pyrethroid Ectopour has been conducted in the Gullele-Tolley area of the Ghibe Valley, southwest Ethiopia. Monthly applications of the pour-on were given to about 2,000 cattle between April 1991 and July 1992 and about 3,000 cattle b...

A deltamethrin `pour-on' insecticide was applied monthly to over 2000 cattle exposed to a high challenge of drug-resistant trypanosomes and high tsetse re-invasion pressure in the Ghibe valley, south-west Ethiopia. Blood samples were taken monthly from an average of 760 cattle for determination o...
