  1. The geometric mean number (with 95% CI) of mosquitoes by month are presented. Months highlighted in italics show the duration of the IRS campaigns
  2. CDC LT US Centers for Disease Control light trap, IRR incidence rate ratio, IRS indoor residual spraying
  3. aIncidence rate ratio from the zero-inflated negative binomial regression analysis, describing the rate at which mosquitoes were collected in IRS villages relative to no-IRS villages. An IRR = 1 indicates no difference across study arms
  4. bThe probability that the true IRR = 1; zero-inflated negative binomial regression
  5. cOverall averages from the duration of the study after the first IRS campaign, December 2016–October 2018
