Analysis of the 35khz - 60khz Ultrasound o f O. Tormota Evoking Optimal Startle Response in t he African A. Gambiae S. S.

Maweu, Onesmus M.; Mang’ are, P. A.; Ndiritu, F. G.; Vulule, J. M. (2015-02)

The Chinese frog, Odorrana tormota generate s ultrasound naturally through vocal apparati . This ultrasou nd detectable by the female Anopheles gambiae antennae evoked evasive response due to neural stress and fear f or ...
The combined predator ultrasound acoustic startle response in the female A. Gambiae

Maweu, Onesmus M.; Mang’are, P. A.; Ndiritu, F. G.; Vulule, J. M. (2013)

Ultrasound is detected by the female Anopheles gambiae using its antenna, evoking either an attractive or repulsive response. Electronic mosquito repellents which exploit this concept in attempt to control malaria, have ...
A comparative study of the transmission parameters of the sound of mosquito predators and EMR

Maweu, Onesmus M.; Mang’are, P. A.; Ndiritu, F. G.; Vulule, J. M. (2012)

The wide bandwidth EMR ultrasound, exploited in mosquito repellency, yielded only 20 % effectiveness. Due to this wide bandwidth, ultrasound from Amolops tormotus and Coleura afra, mosquito predators, was investigated. ...
Investigation into t he 35 Khz - 60 Khz Frequency Range of the Naturally Generated Ultrasound of t he African Bat, C. Afra, Eliciting Optimal Evasive Response in t he African A. Gambiae S. S.

Maweu, Onesmus M.; Mang’ are, P. A.; Ndiritu, F. G.; Vulule, J. M. (2015)

This research investigated the 35 kHz - 60 kHz frequency band of the naturally generated ultrasound of the African sheath tailed bat, Coleura afra , which elicited optimal evasive response in the African Anopheles gambiae. ...
The Startling Effect of the Sound of C. Afra and A. Tormotus on the Female A. Gambiae

Maweu, Onesmus M.; Mang’are, P. A.; Ndiritu, F. G.; Vulule, J. M. (2012)

The female Anopheles gambiae, a malaria vector, detects ultrasound by its antenna, initiating an attractive or repulsive response. Modern electronic mosquito repellents exploit this concept in attempt to control malaria, ...
