Table 1 Comparison of phase I and phase II spatial mortality rates in control and treated surfaces

Cement tested at a distance of 1 m at T0	Control	One layer IP at 1 kg/6 sq m in distance box – phase I	One layer IP at 1 kg/6 sq m in experimental huts - phase II
An. gambiae Kisumu	0^a	100^b	100^b
Cx. quinquefasciatus S-Lab	0^a	100^b	100^b

Delayed 24-hour mortality of Anopheles gambiae Kisumu and Culex quinquefasciatus S-Lab after overnight exposure at a distance of 1 m in distance boxes in laboratory, and in experimental huts in the field.
IP, Insecticide paint, T0, 0 months after treatment. Values in the same row sharing a letter superscript do not differ significantly (P ≥ 0.05).
