  abstract = {{W}e are attempting to develop cost-effective control methods for the important vector of sleeping sickness, {G}lossina fuscipes spp. {R}esponses of the tsetse flies {G}lossina fuscipes fuscipes (in {K}enya) and {G}. f. quanzensis (in {D}emocratic {R}epublic of {C}ongo) to natural host odours are reported. {A}rrangements of electric nets were used to assess the effect of cattle-, human- and pig-odour on (1) the numbers of tsetse attracted to the odour source and (2) the proportion of flies that landed on a black target (1 x 1 m). {I}n addition responses to monitor lizard ({V}aranus niloticus) were assessed in {K}enya. {T}he effects of all four odours on the proportion of tsetse that entered a biconical trap were also determined. {S}ources of natural host odour were produced by placing live hosts in a tent or metal hut (volumes approximate to 16 m(3)) from which the air was exhausted at similar to 2000 {L}/min. {O}dours from cattle, pigs and humans had no significant effect on attraction of {G}. f. fuscipes but lizard odour doubled the catch ({P}<0.05). {S}imilarly, mammalian odours had no significant effect on landing or trap entry whereas lizard odour increased these responses significantly: landing responses increased significantly by 22% for males and 10% for females; the increase in trap efficiency was relatively slight (5-10%) and not always significant. {F}or {G}. f. quanzensis, only pig odour had a consistent effect, doubling the catch of females attracted to the source and increasing the landing response for females by similar to 15%. {D}ispensing {CO}2 at doses equivalent to natural hosts suggested that the response of {G}. f. fuscipes to lizard odour was not due to {CO}2. {F}or {G}. f. quanzensis, pig odour and {CO}2 attracted similar numbers of tsetse, but {CO}2 had no material effect on the landing response. {T}he results suggest that identifying kairomones present in lizard odour for {G}. f. fuscipes and pig odour for {G}. f. quanzensis may improve the performance of targets for controlling these species.},
