Abstract
Pyramidal traps (8000) have been set up against Glossina fuseipes fuseipes to control Trypanosoma rhodesiense in Busoga. In order to understand the pattern of tsetse/human contact, the collection of data on the density, spatial distribution and mobility of flies has been related to the dynamics of human trypanosomiasis in Busoga. As for T. gambiense, few reasonable correlations between global fly densities and incidence of the disease have been found. However, field observation with a recording time of seasonal variations of movements of people and animals associated with particular habitats, remains the key to understanding the transmission of the disease.
