Description

Area-wide integrated pest management (AW-IPM) entails the integration of different control tactics against an entire population within a circumscribed area. AW-IPM results in more sustainable pest control. These guidelines provide, aside from some basic information on the biology of tsetse flies, guidance on the development and implementation of an entomological survey to collect essential baseline data using modern spatial tools such as geographic information systems, satellite imagery, remote sensing etc. - from Amzon
