Fig. 6

ac Effect of altering coverage of households with eave tubes and IRS on relative transmission potential (RTP). The x axis represents the percent of properties with eave tubes; the y axis represents the percent of properties with IRS. IRS is assumed to deflect 50 % of vectors that attempt to enter a property, and to kill 40 % of resting vectors as in Table 1. Eave tubes are assumed to deflect 20 % of vectors and cause 70 % mortality in the remainder attempting to enter an eave tube protected property. The distribution of each intervention differs among the plots. The different coloured contours indicate different levels of RTP. a The distribution of each intervention is assumed random and not affected by the presence of the other intervention. b LLINS are present only in percentage of eave tube protected properties. c LLINS present only in percentage of non-eave tube protected properties
