Overall, 4’500 traps have been installed. Zika Virus and Dengue Fever The odour-baited trap may also offer a solution to diseases like Dengue fever and the Zika virus. “Also Aedes aegypti, the vector [...] human scent and could possibly be contained by such a trap”, says Tom Smith from Swiss TPH. Zika and dengue fever could therefore be combated with the odour-baited traps. Malaria: a major cause of death and
