Extract

A small reclamation experiment staged in the coral rag thicket under unfavourable conditions proved successful in eradicating Glossina austeni and G. brevipalpis and in virtually eradicating G. pallidipes. Applied with adequate protective clearings, it is thought that the method may prove entirely successful in eradicating G. pallidipes as well as G. austeni and G. brevipalpis.

Under both dry and wet season conditions traps proved quite ineffective.
