Scoring data
Data is recorded at ten minute intervals. The first count should be made as soon as the mesquites are in the bottle.
Run four replicates of each insecticide plus one control (view sample run).
Mosquitoes are scored as alive or dead. It helps to gently rotate the bottle while counting.
Dead mosquitoes slide with the curvature of the bottle are more easily scored.
Another animation will be used rather than photo above.
