Agent-based modeling of malaria control through mosquito aquatic habitats management in a traditional sub-Sahara grouping
Abstract Background Africans pour dirty water around their houses which constitutes aquatic habitats (AH). These AH are sought by mosquitoes for larval development. Recent studies have shown the effectiveness of destroying AH around houses in reducing malaria incidence. An agent-based model is propo...
