Citizen science set in motion: DIY light traps for phlebotomine sand flies

Phlebotomine sand flies are vectors of various diseases such as leishmaniasis making them a public health concern worldwide. To increase the tools available for the study of sand flies, we developed do it yourself (DIY) light traps made mainly from recycled materials and tested their effectiveness i...
